LESSON PLANS for this episode:
www.history4humans.com/produc...
The real Rosie the Riveter, Namoi Parker Fraley, tens of thousands of other Rosies, and the lives of women during World War II is explored in this story-lecture. Who was Rosie the Riveter really? Generally she was tens of thousands of women whose lives were transformed by WWII as they took on war jobs in defense plants, but the real Rosie the Riveter was Naomi Parker Fraley. But for seven decades she was not given credit for most likely being the woman who inspired Miller's "We Can Do It" poster.
WWII on the homefront impacted everyone and women's lives were totally transformed. On the WWII homefront, women planted victory gardens, conserved resources, contributed to scrap metal drives, had food and goods rationed, and helped to finance the war by buying liberty bonds.
Like all History For Humans episodes, this teaches students in a way they understand and actually learn- through story and with visual supports for diverse learners.
For teachers and homeschool parents, I have resources that go with this lesson that include interactive notesheets, a quick quiz, and an extension lesson that is a 'stations activity' with 4 awesome exploration tasks for students. They read about "Black Rosies" to learn how African American women experienced the war, read about "Women in Uniform," analyze propaganda posters, and a fun rationing activity where they have to ration money and coupons to purchase groceries for a family for a week. Engagement guaranteed! Answer keys for everything!
