The Curriculum
Our STEM Like a Girl curriculum contains over twenty five Ice Breaker activities and ten Design Challenges that we rotate through. A typical workshop includes eight Ice Breaker stations and two Design Challenges. We try to select different activities for each workshop, but there may be some overlap.
Design Challenge activities for specific workshops will be posted as soon as they are selected. Because the Design Challenges are open ended, we’ve also heard that girls love repeating projects as it gives them the opportunity to try a different design. So if an activity is new-to-you or a repeat project, we know that you and your daughter will have fun working on them TOGETHER!
