Universe: More Than Meets the Eye
Facilitated via Zoom by The Rising Stargirls Team.
This webinar workshop is created for educators of middle-school girls (grades 6-8) from groups traditionally underrepresented in the sciences*. This workshop will cover how to incorporate the Rising Stargirls curriculum into existing curricula or programs. In the Rising Stargirls curriculum, girls will explore constellations in the night sky, planets in and outside of our solar system, and the unseen mysteries of the universe. They will use writing, visual art, and theater games to process what they learn and discover. And educators will learn and discover along with them!
TEACHERS: Rising Stargirls activities can be done in your classrooms to complement an existing science curriculum, or as an after-school program. And it’s free of charge (funding provided by the National Science Foundation)!
