Assume girls are interested in math, science, and technology.
Too many girls still get the message that math and science aren't for them.
At Girls Incorporated girls jump at the opportunity to dismantle machines,
care for and study insects and small animals, and solve logic puzzles.
In an all-girl environment girls can focus on the task at hand-and have
fun while they're at it.
Expect them to succeed.
Girls Incorporated teaches girls that they are not only capable of mastering
math and science, they're expected to continue to do so throughout
high school and college.
Help them get past the "yuk" factor.
Girls who are afraid of getting dirty aren't born that way-they're made.
Girls Incorporated encourages girls to put concerns about their "femininity" aside
and get good and grubby digging in a river bed or exploring a car engine.
Girls learn they have a right to be themselves and to resist pressure
to behave in sex-stereotyped ways.
Let them make big, interesting mistakes.
Girls who are overly protected in the lab or on the playground have few
chances to assess risks and solve problems on their own. At Girls Incorporated,
once dreaded mistakes become hypotheses. Girls are urged to go back to
the drawing board to figure out, why their newly-assembled electric door
alarm doesn't work or their water filter gets clogged. Supported by adults
instead of rescued, girls learn to embrace their curiosity, face their
fear, and trust their own.
