I have found that POEMS about mathematicians not only can serve to celebrate those lives but also provide a meaningful way to introduce these important people into math classes. Here are several links to previously posted poems that speak of the lives of math-women:
Sophie Germain (1776-1831) Florence Nightingale (1820-1910)
Amalie "Emmy" Noether (1882-1935) Grace Murray Hopper (1906 - 1988)
Readers may find more poems about special people by scrolling through postings or by using a blog-SEARCH. Names available for SEARCH may be found in this document. And here is a link to a blog-SEARCH using the terms "math women".
