Girls in Education, January Middle School Book Group

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. ~ Nelson Mandela
Reading
The Red Pencil
     Half the Sky, shares the stories of women and girls worldwide who need justice, hope, and help.  Acceptable for jr. high and high school, but I do not recommend for students younger than 14, as these are exceedingly difficult subjects. 

   Sheryl Wu Dunn, speaks at TED on the global oppression of women worldwide. Appropriate for jr. high, high school, and some mature middle school students.
 
Cooking

 Freedom of Movement  
  Use a twin sheet and dress in a "sari" for class. How well do you manage moving around in a tight dress? 

Pondering

Creating Opportunities for Women, Girls, and Families

The pen is mightier than the sword. ~ Malala
