March Week Two

 In honor of last week's International Women's Day celebrations, we talked about many topics regarding women's rights, from the Me Too movement, to emotional labor.

Listening:
Learners can start by listening about last year's women's march or a Six Minute English episode about the right to vote. For something a little harder, try a listening exercise about sexual harrassment, you can modulate the speed.

For original version, you could watch a documentary about why sexual assault hasn't stopped, or the fanstastic TAL episode Five Women (with transcript) 

Reading:
Learners can read about the history of International Women's Day or about Rwanda: the first women led country.

For original version, try 15 Remarkable Women we Overlooked or an article from the Guardian about emotional labor.

Writing:
Now it's up to you to write an article about why International Women's Day is relevant (or not) to you. What does it represent? What is the struggle about?
Best,
Kelly
