Amelia Earhart - The lives of significant individuals in the past

Here, the children will build upon their knowledge of the history of flight by examining another significant individual who has contributed nationally or globally. They will understand the chronology of Amelia's achievements; how they relate to the impact of the Wright Brothers; what changes did she bring about and what were the consequences of her actions; were there any significant conflicts (whereby comparisons can bemade with women's struggle for power through the ages in exploration); what was the impact of her achievements and how do they relate to ourlives today.
