Girl Scouts and STEM: New Space Science Badges and Opportunities to Connect with the Explore Science: Earth & Space Toolkits
Tuesday, August 21, 2018; 2 - 3pm Eastern / 11am - 12pm Pacific
This summer Girl Scouts of the USA are releasing a new set of Space Science badges for Daisy, Brownie and Junior girls. Join us to learn more about Girl Scouts’ STEM strategy, their new Space Science badges, and ways science museums can successfully partner with local Girl Scout troops using the Explore Science: Earth & Science toolkits. We’ll be joined by Girl Scouts of the USA, Girl Scouts of Northern California, as well as museum staff members who have built successful partnerships with local Girl Scout troops.
