The Science and Technology of Marie Curie - Julie Knutson

The Science and Technology of Marie Curie


A science biography that delves into the world of Marie Curie, a person who revolutionized the way we perceive the universe while getting the world to question gender roles and social norms. Follow in her footsteps with hands-on STEM activities! In The Science and Technology of Marie Curie, readers ages 9 through 12 explore Curie's groundbreaking scientific research in physics and chemistry and discover how her work forced people to rethink the very structure of the surrounding world and the role of women within it. Her commitment to understanding things the human eye can't even see led to the discovery of two new elements--polonium and radium--and to the birth of a new field of research around radioactivity. In the process, she was the first woman to earn a Nobel Prize and the only person ever to win two Nobel Prizes in two different scientific fields, all as she reset society's ideas about women's roles in society. By learning about the work of Marie Curie, kids gain insight into the atomic universe through hands-on STEM activities, essential questions, text-to-world connections, and links to online resources that encourage readers to take a closer look into everything going on around them. The year 2021 will mark the 110th anniversary of Curie's receipt of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. Projects use materials already in most homes, reimagining and repurposing everyday items, as well as mining the recycling bin. Projects include Playing Mendeleev's game of cards, Making a 3-D model of the periodic table, and Computing the half-life of M&Ms. Make career connections in the fields of engineering, chemistry, medicine, and more! Addresses disciplinary core ideas (e.g., Structure and Properties of Matter) and crosscutting concepts (e.g., Energy and Matter; Influence of Engineering, Technology, and Science on Society and the Environment) for NSTA's NGSS curriculum. Numerous, direct connections to Dimension 2 of the C3 Framework (History Grades 3-5), providing opportunities for young readers to explore how a historically significant person evolved in context and engendered both scientific and social change.
