Kiwi Innovators - Woman Voting

 Today in Te Ao Whanui we have to do another reading comp. The one I am doing today is Women Voting. I have done Women Voting before so this one is easy for me. After we read the article we have to answer some questions. Here is the answer to the questions. The only white land-owning man could vote. Kate Sheppard thought it was unfair that only men were allowed to vote because women were not intelligent enough. The Suffrage movement got women to be able to vote and make New Zealand first to make women vote. Australia was the second country to allow women to vote. The first Women MP was Elizabeth McCombs, and she was elected in 1993. Kate Sheppard is on the 10$ note. After we did the questions we have to make a video with 5 facts about Kate Sheppard and the suffrage movement. Here is the video.
