Girlstart Summer Camp provides individualized experiences that develop a strong conceptual understanding of STEM subjects and increase participants' interest in STEM activities and careers in an all-girls environment.
Girlstart's Eco Explorers summer camp offers middle school girls a hands-on exploration into the science of sustainability. Campers will engage in a variety of activities designed to foster a strong conceptual understanding of STEM subjects and increase their interest in STEM careers. Participants will create slime glaciers to understand environmental changes, learn to clean up oil spills, and investigate cutting-edge AI-powered climate technologies. The camp also includes engineering challenges such as designing and constructing upcycled greenhouses and building artificial coral reefs to protect marine life. Girls will also focus on local conservation efforts by learning to protect bugs, birds, and plants in their community, making every day an Earth Day experience. The program emphasizes collaborative team building and provides individualized experiences to develop critical problem-solving skills.
A typical day involves a balance of hands-on STEM activities, relevant technology, collaborative team building, and informal camp fun, with a morning and afternoon snack provided.
This camp is best for girls entering 6th-8th grades who are curious about environmental science and eager to engage in hands-on STEM activities to address real-world sustainability challenges.
