Fictional Stories in Science
Using Fictional Stories as a Pathway to Science Content
Women Supporting Women 👊🏽
Today I had the joy of presenting at a local elementary for their International Women’s Day celebration. This invite was extended and accepted by 17 women in our community, to showcase their expertise, creativity, and leadership (and science). 😊
I went to showcase my new, small, and growing business, KPQ Creations, a business I run with my mom and sister, where we use our creativity to make items with fabric and paper. (Below is a picture from a recent craft event)
This International Women’s Day event was created and organized by Quincey Rowe, a leader and role model inside and outside the classroom.
Students, K-5, were able to visit our booths, learn, ask questions, and interact with us. This was organized around the gym, and students were given 1/2 sheets that had a grid of options to explore. I was unable to leave my booth to play and learn, but a friend captured the explorations on my phone. 🙏
I hope to be able to participate next year. Perhaps I will share what it is like to run a website, and encourage students to explore and share their passions. ❤️ I also cannot wait to see this event grow, not only locally, but across schools.
Inspired? I hope so. You can start today for next year’s event. 😀
Thanks Quincey, for the opportunity and the inspiration! ❤️
Happy International Women’s Day!
