90 Second Social Studies Famous American Women

By The Magical Avocado

Women's History IS American History! This ready to edit slide presentation has 35 slides highlighting famous American Women. Using during Women's History Month, as daily bellwork, student projects, learning about various times in history, and more!

What is a 90 Second Social Studies Assignment?

90 Second Social Studies Assignments introduce students to a large amount of information in a relatively short amount of time. The 90 second time limit serves as both a way to keep students on task, and to promote the idea of summarizing key details. 90 Second Social Studies Assignments can cover concepts, historical figures, landmarks, and events. 

Why does this assignment use Google Slides?

One of the issues with student presentations is the transition time between student presenters. When the presentations are all on the same google slide, transitions become seamless. Google Slides also enables students to work simultaneously on the assignment, and for teachers to observe edits and work in real time.
