Hidden Figures Teaching Guide
Teaching Guide and Sample Chapter
Sinopsis
We know that teachers are always looking for new and inspiring books about African American history to assign to their students. To help you decide if Margot Lee Shetterly’s Hidden Figures Teaching Guide EPB is right for your classroom, we’ve created this special e-book that contains a teaching guide and sample chapters.
Hidden Figures Teaching Guide EPB has already been adopted as a common book on campuses across the country, and it has been assigned as required reading in high school and college courses on a variety of subjects—from history, math, and the space race to composition and women’s studies.
Go beyond the book with classroom-ready materials designed to explore the rich history of the space race and civil rights movement through the lives of NASA’s pioneers:
Black History: Delve into the inspiring true story of the West Area Computers, the brilliant African American women who broke barriers at the NACA and NASA during the era of segregation. Women in STEM: Introduce students to trailblazers like Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson, whose work as "human computers" was essential for calculating everything from aircraft performance to orbital trajectories for the first astronauts. The Space Race: Uncover the high-stakes pressure of the Cold War as these mathematicians contributed to America’s efforts to surpass the Soviet Union, break the sound barrier, and ultimately land a man on the moon. Civil Rights Movement: Connect the compelling narrative of Hidden Figures to the broader fight for equality, including the Double V campaign and the desegregation of the federal workplace, providing a unique perspective on American history.
