Description

PRIMARY RESOURCES CAN BE PARTICULARLY USEFUL FOR ENRICHING CURRICULUM AND FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING, IN THIS ARTICLE, I DEMONSTRATE HOW A VARIETY OF PRIMARY SOURCES CAN BE BROUGHT TOGETHER TO ENRICH STUDENTS' KNOWLEDGE OF WOMEN WHO PARTICIPATED IN WAR IN VARIOUS WAYS, I HAVE CHOSEN FIVE WOMEN WHOSE STORIES ARE INTERESTING TO TELL AND FOR WHOM THERE ARE FEW OR NO RECENT PRINT BIOGRAPHIES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE. "Women have always and everywhere been inextricably involved in war," states De Pauw (2000, p. xiii) in Battle Cries and Lullabies: Women in War From Prehistory to the Present. Scholars such as De Pauw and Reina Pennington, editor of Amazons to Fighter Pilots (2003), have brought an awareness to the roles that women have played in war, although women's and girls' involvement in wartime activities has not always been well documented.
