=520    $aThis video introduces Caroline Herschel and her brother William. Caroline
talks about their work studying the planets and the solar system, and shares
her astronomical discoveries, including comets and nebulae. She also explains
how she was the first woman to discover a comet, which was subsequently named
after her, 35 P Herschel-Rigollet. William talks about how he discovered the
planet Uranus. After being made an assistant to her brother, Caroline Herschel
was the first woman to be paid for scientific work. She made many observations
and found 2,500 nebulae, summarized in a list called the Catalogue of Nebulae
and Clusters of Stars – abbreviated to CN. She recorded her findings precisely
by drawing the nebulae. Teacher notes: As a starter to introduce a practical
science activity, you could write a simple quiz to encourage students to capture
the keywords shown in the video. Students can write their own definitions from
these words using the internet or science dictionaries to improve their
scientific vocabularies. To consolidate their knowledge, you could get students to make booklets that include key information about the work of Caroline and
William Herschel. They could define the keywords featured in the video, and find
five or more additional pieces of information about the work of the
scientists using books, encyclopedias or the internet.
