Team 111's Girls in STEM Workshop

This is great! My team actually helped out with something similar to this called Green Girls. In Green Girls, we mainly focused on the areas of solar power, wind power and hydro power, covering other important topics like gear ratios and project planning in a more brief manner. The kids really enjoyed the learning opportunity and we hope to continue helping out with the program. Even though it is called Green Girls, we made sure to keep it open to both genders as to maintain gender equality.

I find it impressive that your team was able to cover electrical, mechanical and programming basics (all essential components of FRC and FTC) in a short period of time. How did you decide what tasks to use to explain these concepts to a younger age group? Any tips? I would love to bring back any advice that you can provide to Green Girls and to the process of developing 4607's summer camp for kids. Thanks
