Hey, guys, look out the window. 6 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: Let those construction workers they look busy. 7 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,480 Speaker 2: Look two of them were women. I thought only men 8 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: could be construction workers. 9 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: No, Cowie, women can be construction workers too, and not 10 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: just construction workers, but so many other things. Welcome to 11 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: Storytime by Lingo Kids, where we discover fascinating facts about 12 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 1: the world around us and the fun of play learning. 13 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: Today we're taking a trip on a plane and talking 14 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: about women in science. Time to board the plane. Does 15 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: everyone have their boarding passes? Yes? Yes, great, let's go. 16 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 2: I think I'm going to sleep on the plane. 17 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to look out the window and look at 18 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: the view. 19 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,960 Speaker 2: And I'm going to read my book. What book did 20 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 2: you bring, Cawi? It's a book about women who have 21 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 2: achieved great things in STEM STEM like a flower. STEM. 22 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: In this case, STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. 23 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: These are very important subjects taught in schools, and together 24 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: they're known as stem Ooh, I love your book, which 25 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: women does it talk about. 26 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: Let's see, there's Mary. 27 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: Ah Marie Curie. She was one of the greatest scientists 28 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 1: of all time. She discovered something special called radium. 29 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 2: What is that. 30 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: Radium is an element, which means it's a very pure substance. 31 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: Some other elements you might know are oxygen, gold, or carbon. 32 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 1: Radium can be used to find and treat some diseases, 33 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: but it is also dangerous, so it is used a 34 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: lot less than it used to be. But this is 35 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: only one of the things Mary Curie discovered. She did 36 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: so many other amazing things for science. Oh. During her 37 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: time in Poland, women were not even allowed to study 38 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: in college, so she moved to Paris to study. However, 39 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: she still faced many challenges in her career just because 40 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: she was a woman. Why well, that's how it was 41 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: in most parts of the world. For a long time. 42 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: Women were often not included in many jobs in science fields, 43 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: and it was hard for them to get an education. 44 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: In some parts of the world, it's still hard for 45 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: many women to get an education. Oh, yes, elliot, old 46 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: habits are changing, but there is still a lot that 47 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: can be done around the world to make sure women 48 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: are able to study and work. The same as men. 49 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: I like Marie Curie. 50 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: She was definitely an inspiration. In spite of all the difficulties, 51 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: she achieved great things and even won two Nobel Prizes, 52 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: the highest award you can get in science. 53 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: That's amazing. I want to be scientists like her. Who 54 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 2: else is in your book, Cawie. Let's see. Ooh, look 55 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,119 Speaker 2: at this woman with lots of big monkeys around her. 56 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: Ah. Yes, that's Jane Goodall. She was an amazing scientist 57 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: who studied apes. She helped people learn about them and 58 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: understand how intelligent they are. She also taught people how 59 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: important it is to protect the environment. 60 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 2: Amazing. Cool. 61 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 1: Dear passengers, this is Captain Jessica speaking. We're ready to 62 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 1: take off, so please fasten your seatbelts and enjoy the flight. 63 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: Wait it the pilot is a woman. Yes, Lisa, it 64 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: seems so whoa. 65 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: I've never seen any female pilots before. 66 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: That's because it's not so common, Cowie. Why well, not 67 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: too long ago. Women were not even allowed to fly planes. 68 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: But they can be amazing pilots just like men. In fact, 69 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: one of the most famous pilots in history was Amelia Heart, 70 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: the first woman to fly across the whole Atlantic ocean. 71 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: Amazing. Maybe one day I will be an artist and 72 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: a pilot too. 73 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: I'm sure you can, Cali. And when I grow up, 74 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: I can be a scientist or an engineer who builds things. 75 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: That's great, Lisa, What do you want to be when 76 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 1: you grow up? Lingo Kids listeners, Well, you can be 77 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: anything you want to be as long as you study 78 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: hardy ah.
