Just want Emmy Noether?
Hello. My name is Emmy Noether. A long time ago, in the year 1882, I was born. When I was a little girl, I loved to solve puzzles. My father was a math teacher, so our house was full of books with numbers and shapes. I thought numbers were like secret puzzle pieces. I would play for hours, putting them together to see how they fit. It was my favorite game.
When I grew up, I kept playing with my number puzzles. I became a mathematician, which is like being a puzzle detective for numbers. I looked for special rules in our world. In the year 1918, I discovered a very important idea. It was like finding a secret rule in a game that helps you understand how everything works. My ideas helped other scientists learn more about our big, wonderful world.
I loved being a teacher, too. I shared my love of puzzles with my students, and it made me so happy to see them get excited about numbers. I lived to be 53 years old. My body is not here anymore, but my ideas still are. Today, scientists use my puzzle-solving rules to learn about stars and tiny things. I hope you find something you love to do, just like I loved my math puzzles.
