Designed to be used for National Women's History Week (March 2-8), this 1986 Maryland women's history resource packet centers around Maryland women who have made significant volunteer and career contributions in the areas of government, law, and the public interest media. The packet begins with suggested student activity lists and activity sheets for elementary and secondary grade levels. The two major sections, "Women in Government, Politics, and Law" and "Women in Media" present information about: (1) Maryland women in government and politics; (2) women and the vote; (3) the role of women in government and politics; (4) women in law; (5) women in Maryland's media; and (6) women and broadcasting. Biographical sketches of famous women and personal reflections, written by women currently involved in government, politics, law, and the media, predominate in these sections, and student activities are also provided. Additional materials contain: (1) information about Maryland's Women's Hall of Fame; (2) a resource directory of print and non-print resources, organizations, historic sites, and other resources in Maryland for Women's History Week; and (3) a speaker's list.
