Why Teaching Women’s History Matters in Your Homeschool
Women’s history is everyone’s history, yet the accomplishments of remarkable women throughout time are often underrepresented in standard curriculum. By intentionally incorporating resources that highlight women’s contributions to science, politics, arts, sports, and social justice, we help our children develop a more complete understanding of history.
These coloring bookmarks feature pioneering women like Marie Curie, Jane Goodall, Frida Kahlo, and Maya Angelou – women who defied expectations and transformed their fields. Each bookmark includes a striking portrait to color plus five fascinating facts about the woman’s life and achievements.
Educational Benefits of These Women’s History Bookmarks
These aren’t just beautiful bookmarks – they’re powerful learning tools for your homeschool:
- Multi-subject learning – Combine history, reading, art, and critical thinking in one engaging activity
- Bite-sized biography format – Perfect for introducing influential women without overwhelming younger students
- Hands-on engagement – Coloring helps students connect with the material while developing fine motor skills
- Practical purpose – Students can use their finished bookmarks in current reading materials for continued exposure to these remarkable role models

How to Use These Bookmarks in Your Homeschool
The versatility of these bookmarks makes them perfect for countless homeschool activities:
Independent Learning Station
Set up a women’s history learning center with the bookmark printables, coloring supplies, and related books. Students can color the bookmarks while listening to audiobooks or podcasts about these influential women.
Timeline Activities
After coloring the bookmarks, have students arrange them chronologically on a timeline. This helps visualize how these women’s lives overlapped or influenced one another across different eras and movements.
Research Springboards
Challenge older students to select one bookmark and expand those five facts into a more detailed biography. What additional accomplishments did they uncover? How did historical events shape each woman’s opportunities and challenges?
Meaningful Gift Projects
These bookmarks make thoughtful handmade gifts for grandparents, librarians, or reading buddies. Students can practice public speaking by explaining who their chosen woman was and why her contributions matter.
Extending the Learning Experience
To deepen your Women’s History Month celebrations, try these extended activities:
Woman of the Day
Choose one bookmark each day to color and discuss during morning time. By month’s end, you’ll have explored fifteen remarkable women’s lives together.
Compare and Connect
Have students identify connections between different women on the bookmarks. Did they work in similar fields? Face similar challenges? How did earlier pioneers make later achievements possible?
Modern-Day Inspiration
Ask students which contemporary women might deserve bookmarks of their own someday. What five facts would they include? This encourages critical thinking about what makes someone historically significant.
Create Your Own
After coloring the provided bookmarks, challenge students to research and design additional bookmarks for other notable women they admire.
