Peigí's Adventures in Science

Peigí’s Adventures in Science is specially written for junior primary-school classes. The book has four stories, each focusing on one science topic and blends an area of diversity/inclusion into the storyline to allow for seamless integration of learning.

The first story, Blast Off Peigí, gently explores issues of gender (in)equality/(dis)ability in tandem with space and materials. Clean Up Peigí touches on the ideas of race and caring for our local environment. The third story, Catch Up Peigí, blends time, speed, and forces with (dis)ability. In the final story, Grow Up Peigí, plants and 
animals are explored alongside age.

The learning on this initiative, funded by Science Foundation Ireland (SFI), is supported by a number of online resources peigisadventures.com.
