A Computer Called Katherine: How Katherine Johnson Helped Put America on the Moon | 
“She believed women could be anything—scientists, lawyers, or mathematicians.”
“She believed women could be anything—scientists, lawyers, or mathematicians.”
This book is really inspiring and a great story to share with students. I like that it shows how women can be more than just teachers, nurses, or other typical “woman” jobs. They can do amazing and important jobs.
pickThis book is about a brilliant and very famous mathematician, Katherine Johnson. From a young age Katherine loved to count and do math, and she was exceedingly smart. She goes on to work for NASA and assist in sending the first person to go to space, the first to orbit the Earth, and Neil Armstrong stepping on the moon.
pickIf you love the science and math you will love A Computer Called Katherine book.It was written by Suzanne Slade and Illustrated by Veronica Jamieson. This B book is the historical story of Katherine who helped send the first manned spaceship to the moon. Katherine was a African American female who was judged by the color of her skin and rejected while working at NASA. This is a historical RA book that should be in every classroom!#ucflae3414su20.

“Katherine knew it was wrong that African Americans didn't have the same rights as others--as wrong as 5+5=12“

pick🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟5 🌟
This book brings the story of Hidden Figures down for children to read and learn about. Katherine is an important historical figure because she proved that you can be both a woman, and black, and still do impossible things like help launch people into space. The story is well written, easy to understand, and keeps the reader's attention. The illustrations are beautiful and a perfect match.
