We
have planned for a ½ day event with the Girl Scouts titled Wow!
That’s Engineering?
(unless there are other suggestions) to be held on Saturday
October 21st. Where
girls can learn exciting concepts of Engineering first hand
from several practicing female Engineers through a series of
workshops. They
will get to become "Engineers" for a day and
discover engineering solutions to real-world problems.
During each workshop the girls will create something
that they can take home and share with their friends and
family. The
following are a list of possible activities that we will
conduct. We are
still looking for suggestions so, if you know of a good one
please let us know.
·
Making Lip gloss
·
Paper Chromatography
·
Electronic Matching Game
·
Find Your Center of Gravity
This
will be for the Girl Scout age level of Junior, which is for 4th
– 6th graders.
We will offer a patch for this experience, which we are
able to design with help from GS.
There will be a min of 12 and max of 24 girls per class
and the session will run from 8:00 am until 12:30 pm on that
Saturday. Girl
Scouts will also help us with obtaining the venue for this
event.
If
you are interested in volunteering to teach, assist in a class
or in general please contact [email protected] .
We need to know how many volunteers we will have and
how many we will need to ask GS to provide.
We
would like to have this count no later than August 15th
if possible.
