    Try to get hold of Women in Colonial and Revolutionary America 1607-1790
    published by the Mid-Atlantic Equity Center (202-885-8536), a study unit
    designed for grades 4-8 including bios of women, classroom activities, and
    additional sources. Another is Women of the American Revolution grades 5-8
    by Jim Pearson published by the National Center for History in the School
    -
    University of California, LA. Contains Teacher Background Materials and
    Lesson Plans with Student Resources - makes a lot of use of primary source
    materials.

    Both are well done and I have used them with success when I was teaching
    American History to middle schoolers. If you can't get these materials,
    contact me.
