The Legend of the First Rainbow can be traced back to Botswana. It is an embedded narrative in which the folklore of the sighting of the first rainbow is nested in between a secondary narrative, told within a contemporary tale that is shared by a grandmother to her grandchildren. At the end of the story, the children are inspired to take an adventurous trip to the local market where they endeavor to conduct a scientific experiment using local produce in the colours of the rainbow. This story is a great resource for a STEM project, and urges all children to be inquisitive, imaginative and to dream big! It is aligned with the UN SDG4 which aims to "Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all". The story provides educators with other ways of promoting learning outside the formal classroom experience.
