What educators are saying

I absolutely love this resource! I have these hanging up in my classroom and I love the way this resource sparks conversations. I would be thrilled if more scientists, pioneers, and trailblazers were added so that I could add to my wall.
I added quotes from each person...and my students, when not focused on me, are often focused on the wall...They are enthralled to see people who look like them (and not just old, dead, white guys) participating in the story of science.

Description

Representation matters in classroom décor - When students see themselves in the faces of famous scientists it helps them recognize their own potential for achieving greatness.

This beautiful set of 27 posters features a diverse collection of famous scientists and their careers! Print and hang them with the included name tags, or make a game for students to match the names to the scientists. There’s also an extension activity with prompts for students to research and write an essay about one of the featured careers.

The scientists featured include a variety of diverse and inclusive backgrounds.
