You certainly can't complain about the weather. We have had a good combination of rain and sun which keeps the grass growing but not so much that it needs to be mowed every week. We also haven't had to run the air condi- tioners full tilt. I just returned from a visit to Fort Worth where the temperature was 110 F so I don't want to hear any complaints about it being hot. Well enough about the weather. I think Barb Cool and Cheryl Alden have been doing a great job with a diverse array of summer activities. A bunch of us had wings at Quaker Steak and Lube and saw the new Pi- rates of the Caribbean movie. The plan was to go bike riding but due to a little flooding in Valley View we ended up drinking beer and taking in a movie. Last Friday I ended up on the Good Time III with Barb Cool and a bunch of her friends.

  • HIDDEN HEROES: the Black Women of NASA
    ACROSS THE CURRICULUM HIDDEN HEROES: The Black Women of NASA Based on the Book Hidden Human Computers: The Black Women of NASA by Sue Bradford Edwards and Duchess Harris, JD, PHD Published by ADBO Publishing, Minneapolis, MN Play written by Sha Cage Directed by Signe Harriday Below are ideas inspired by the play as a jumping off point for cross-curriculum and interdisciplinary study in your classroom. From research, writing, discussion or analysis the play can be used to reach any number of educational goals. Below are a few suggestions for curriculum incorporating HIDDEN HEROES: The Black Women of NASA into your classroom studies. Please also refer to ADDITIONAL RESOURCES throughout the guide for links to more research, curriculum ideas and lesson plans. ABOUT THE PLAY Stages Theatre Company’s production of Hidden Heroes: The Black Women of NASA is based on the history book Hidden Human Computers: The Black Women of NASA by Sue Bradford Edwards and Duchess Harris. The dramatization was written by Sha Cage and is directed by Signe Harriday. It was developed through reading, research and interviews with Duchess Harris’s mother, Miriam Harris, whose mother Miriam Mann was one of the original human computers starting in 1943. As an historical interpretation that spans many decades and the lives and accomplishments of many people, the play does take dramatic license in terms of time, space and specific biographical facts. For example, the students did not all attend the same school or did not attend at the same time even though in the context of the play they do.
