I know every day should be a day of recognition for women in all fields. But it is nice to have today designated as International Women’s Day around the world. I try to do my part in my classroom by countering the gender biases that my sixth grade boys are already beginning to develop (just the other day, this happened when we were using a Time for Kids magazine that featured women pioneers) and to remind my students of the inequities of history, where women were often forgotten or shunted aside.
Google has a cool Google Doodle today.
And I wanted to share out (again) a video game that I made for my students about Women in Science.
Peace (in the recognition),
Kevin
