Women's History Month Read Aloud banner

March 17 – 21

Join The Rendell Center, ABOTA, The Pennsylvania Bar Association, and The Annenberg Foundation for our March Read Aloud Program honoring Women’s History Month. We have selected three (3) books to make Read Alouds this month especially
memorable.

I Dissent by Devie Levi

The Youngest Marcher by Cynthia Levinson

Mae Among the Stars by Roda Ahmed

What to Expect:

From March 17-21, lawyers and judges will join classrooms virtually with our specially crafted Read Aloud Sessions to narrate our selected works of children’s literature.

The sessions last 30-45 minutes and are ideal for grades 2-5.

These engaging sessions will wrap up with discussion questions.

    Note: We’re doing something new this month. We’ve added a second Zoom meeting for each time slot. When you sign up, you will be assigned one of the two. Someone else can sign up at the same time for the other session. They are wholly separate.
