Girls' STEM Resources & Activities


SciGirls is a fun, fascinating interactive resource for STEM.  Mentors and mentees, students, parents, teachers and others will like this tool.

Catherine Carter, the museum educator at the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History, is a certified SciGirls trainer.  She will come to communities around Oklahoma to work with girls, who need to be in love with and understand STEM from elementary on to have the choice of STEM careers later.

Mentoring groups can lead by organizing other groups of girls from ages 8 or 9 through middle school age to participate. 

Below is the contact information for Catherine.  Let us know if she presents a program; send photos and a critique.
