Girl Scout Webinar Opportunity for Kindergarten! See info below: Girls all around the world are about to take a BIG step! Naturally, families want to do everything they can to prepare their girl to start Kindergarten with confidence. That’s where Girl Scouts comes in—our kindergarten readiness course is FREE and open to all girls. This course includes 4 webinars that are filled with fun and educational activities. Entitled “Make New Friends”, our Kindergarten Readiness Webinars provide opportunities to girls that will strengthen four competencies as they enter Kindergarten. This series allows her to connect with the same friends each week, as well as Girl Scout staff who will lead her through sessions around language and literacy, cognition, approaches to learning, as well as social and emotional learning. In this webinar, girls will launch into literacy, learning how to identify major story characters and basic storylines. Girls will also shoot for the stars as they transform into little scientists learning to observe and make discoveries in their worlds all while practicing their observations skills. In the final meeting, girls will begin to see themselves as unique individuals that have their own abilities, emotions, and interests! We can’t wait to get your girls started on this adventure!
