Major Women's Resources

Resources from New Hampshire

The Black Heritage Trail of New Hampshire promotes awareness and appreciation of African American history and life in order to build more inclusive communities today. We believe that if we could embrace our shared history, we could heal racial anxiety and misunderstanding -- in our communities, our state and in this country.
This resource is produced by Plymouth State University's Coordinator of Social Studies Education and seniors within the program. "The purpose of this website is to provide comprehensive resources to budding social studies educators. Too often in education we reinvent the wheel. Many amazing resources are out there from incredible organizations, but few are organized into full courses and units, that is where this website comes in. On our site, we have done a lot of the preparation for you and found the best lesson plans out there and embedded some of our own made by SSE Professor Eckert and SSE students."
The Remedial Herstory Project is a New Hampshire based nonprofit founded and led by women educators and advocates under the advisement of women's historians and college professors. The RHP is dedicated to developing and providing inquiry-based learning materials on women’s history free to educators. In support of its mission, the RHP produces media, provides resources, and professional development in history for educators.
​“Moose on the Loose” is an elementary social studies curriculum for the State of New Hampshire. Created by the New Hampshire Historical Society, it explores the Granite State’s history, economics, geography, and civic life, introducing elementary students to the state’s rich cultural heritage. The site offers lots of material for kids in the upper elementary grades (grades 3-6), much of which is adaptable even for students in older grades. "Moose on the Loose" provides many ways for kids to connect what they learn about the past to current, statewide issues. It also provides a foundation for lifelong learning about New Hampshire, America, and the democratic traditions that unite us all. So dive in and find out more about the state we all love!
