To support the Boston Women's Memorial (BWM), IMPACT II TeachNet Learn & Serve offered high school teachers interested in Women's History, Writing, and Public Art a series of opportunities and learning experiences: • Field Trip/Program ~ Pen & Parchment: Abigail & John ~ at the Adams National Historical Park, Quincy • Teaching Boston History WORKSHOPS ~ Abigail Adams, Phillis Wheatley and Lucy Stone: Patriotism, Poetry and Persistence ~ at the Old State House Museum • Grant Options for teacher participants and their students to develop projects inspired by BWM Results show Classroom, Community, and Career activities that identify women committed to social change and public service. Hopefully, these BWM Signature Projects ~ Learn & Serve will inspire students and teachers to research women and restore them to their rightful place in history.
