The woman suffrage movement was a long struggle, spanning many major events in American history. In this activity, you will see eleven different documents arguing both for and against the right to vote for women. Put them in the correct chronological order that they were created.

As you work, make a list of the arguments that suffragists and anti-suffragists used to convince others of their opinions – you must closely examine each to be able to do this.
