Time line of Kate Sheppard


Today in class we were reading story's and watching videos about Kate Sheppard who is a New Zealand hero and is on the New Zealand $10 note, She was the person who made ladies be able to vote because men thought that ladies were just meant to stay home and cook and clean.

    Hi Lacie

    Thanks for sharing all your Kate Sheppard work. I liked to see you challenging yourself to extend your answers for the short answer questions.

    I wonder if there was a way to reformat this so it isn't running off the page and difficult to read?

    Also, for the timeline, could you embed the Google Drawing, this would look much nicer than the desktop screenshot. Just some suggestions to make your work look as great as it can be!
