I am a Cadette/Senior Girl Scout Leader. When I first became a leader of this age group, I found this book to be unfriendly, and very hard. After 3 years experience, I have become the expert, and have helped many other troops find resources. Overall, the layout of this material is good, but as far as resources being readily available as in other editions for younger age groups, this is missing. For younger Cadette Scouts, many of the requirements for the badges seem impossible. It takes a creative leader to make some of the requirements accomplishable and interesting.
Interest projects are fun and easy to earn, and all the information and requirements are cleary outlined in this book. The interest projects are categorized based of emphasis (Life Skills; Nature, Science and Health; Communications; The Arts and History; Sports and Recreation). The requirements for each patch include: Skill Builders, Technology, Service Projects and Career Information. In addition to the patch requirements, there are also suggestions for completeing the requirements, such as how to interview, role-play, work with younger girls, conduct research investigations, and deal with saftey issues. Information on managing your projects, working toward the Gold and Silver awards, and writting your own interest project are also included. Every cadatte/senoir girl scout should have this book, as well as anyone who works with girls grades 6-12 and need activity ideas.
I was reviewing this book for when my girls bridge up and it outlines the badge requirements nicely. I don't think that it would be easy to figure it all out without the book.
Girl Scouts has recently updated their handbooks and badgebooks. While you can still get the old set, it just seemed like a better idea to find a used copy.My Girl Scout would really rather continue with the old style badges. When we got our book she sat down with some sticky notes to mark all the badges she would like to try to earn.This book has made her excited about becoming a Cadette!
Though there are new books and patches, my girls begged me to find more of these Interest Project for Girls 11-17 books. They are straight forwards, give lots of ideas and examples of what they can do to fulfill each requirement necessary to earn the badge, and are a better fit to their busy lifestyles. My troop (grades 7-12)tends to be very active. They want to work on service projects, delve deeply into interests, and explore the opportunities available. They are able to better visualize and find related activities due to the guidance from this book. As a leader, I love that the girls can choose a topic, learn about it, and lead the troop through the process of self-discovery discovery while learning about a wide variety of topics. My girls are now the leaders. I may be learning more from them at this point than they from me!
The Girl Scouts are rewriting the badge book. Only buy if collecting books. You can still earn the badges in the book if you can find the badges to buy. Check with your local GS council before...or borrow this book from a friend.
I got this for my cadette Girl Scout troop and they were happy to get them. That way they would have one for themselves and not have to look at somebody else's book. It's important that they have there own book.
I'd suggest that every cadette get a copy if they're serious about completing the interest projects.
