What comes first—the science or the fiction? How can we apply scientific inquiry in a language arts classroom? Prime Stage’s production of A Wrinkle in Time showcases the intersection between science, art and literature. The exhibits at the Carnegie Science Center will inspire your own scientific questions which will be used as prompts for creative writing. Apply the scientific method to developing literary analytical skills.
