This week’s story is Maria’s Comet (pronounced Ma-RYE-a). Maria Mitchell was a Unitarian who, inspired by her astronomer father, became an astronomer in a time when very few females entered the sciences. The activities include making your own constellation and playing pin the star on the constellation. The book has been scanned and read-aloud so your child(ren) can enjoy the pictures right on your screen. Don’t feel you have to do all the activities—have fun!
