New Curriculum Will Help Amplify Stories of Inspiring Women and
Girls
As part of its commitment to delivering an interactive,
standards-aligned curriculum for K–12 students, and in celebration
of Women’s History Month in March, Stride, Inc. (NYSE: LRN) is now
offering more content options that feature the diverse stories of
girls and women across fields of study and around the globe.
Through a unique partnership with Rebel Girls—a global,
multi-platform girl empowerment brand—Stride has curated
collections of Rebel Girls book and audio content within its Stride
Learning Hub: a digital teaching tool that allows educators to
customize their respective courses with Stride activities, lessons,
and assessments. As part of these Rebel Girls collections, Stride
has developed new ways to read stories and visualize
illustrations.
“At Stride, we understand the value of representation,” said
Niyoka McCoy, Stride’s Chief Learning Officer. “The fact is that
students are better learners when they read stories and see
real-life people who reflect their background and look like them.
This new Rebel Girls content supports our goal to empower every
student to think critically and unlock the power of the written
word.”
Stride’s Rebel Girls content represents women from all fields of
study, including English and language arts, math, science, history,
and social studies. It also includes a collection of women
activists who have worked to enact change around the world.
“Rebel Girls is excited to partner with Stride to offer
educators stories of inspiring women – past and present – to
incorporate as part of diverse and empowering lesson plans and
activities for all students,” said Michon Vanderpoel, Rebel Girls’
Head of Sales and Partnerships.
As the nation’s leading online and blended learning program
provider, Stride helps students develop their literary analysis and
comprehension skills by reading novels, nonfiction, and
contemporary works. A close reading approach also guides students
toward a deeper understanding of the meaning of selected texts.
As a leading global empowerment brand reaching girls through
content, product, community, and experiences, Rebel Girls’
curriculum with Stride continues to extend the brand’s reach
following recent content partnerships with Nike, Google Kids Space,
and Kahoot, among others.
