Girl Scout Cadette Media Journey Resources

The media journey is very accessible to today's youth.

The Media and Body Image

Sending the wrong message to our impressionable daughters, movies to spark discussions.

Useful Online Resources for The Media Journey

• Media in a Day Here is an outline on how to accomplish this Journey in one session.
• Girl Scouts of Easter Iowa and Western Illinois A great Pinterest board full of ideas for this Journey.
• Snapshot of Media Journey The Girl Scouts of Northern California have an outline of how to do this program in several meetings.

Model Transformation

Inappropriate Media Images

Just what are they trying to sell, another big issue girls have in relation to the media is overtly sexual advertisements. one look at online and print ads for teencentric brands like abercrombie and hollister and it can make a parent cringe. the images are inappropriate and have young adults in provocative poses to sell overpriced jeans and tee shirts. by advertising their products in this manner, it makes it appear acceptable to girls this age to act this way..

Cadette Troop Year Planner

Your guide to a year of going, seeing, and doing!

For troop leaders of sixth, seventh and eighth grade girl scouts. .

Cadettes can’t wait to get out in the world and take action! Whether they’re taking off on the first field trip they’ve truly planned for themselves or discovering new ways they can help others, they’re showing up and creating the world they want to see. This guide will help you as your Girl Scouts explore activities focused on discovery, confidence, and practical skills that will help them be their best selves. Planning for your troop year should always be girl-led . To get you started, we’ve collected a variety of our most popular badges and awards into one action-packed plan, you’ll see just how simple it can be to make a huge difference in your Girl Scouts’ lives. Get ready for a year of adventure and excitement as you help them grow.  

How to get started:

Use these online Cadette troop year plans to start planning your year. You can customize it along the way as you get to know your Girl Scouts and their interests.

• Order your Cadette program materials and resources from the  Girl Scout Shop
• Access detailed instructions to lead troop meetings through the Volunteer Toolkit (VTK), your free online resource for meeting overviews, materials lists, and more.  See step-by-step access instructions .

 Find everything you need to lead a successful troop year at the Girl Scout Shop.

Tips and Resources:

• Arrival : Ask Cadettes who arrive early to help unpack and set up any snacks and activity materials for later. 
• Warmups and Wellness : Get Cadettes excited to begin their meeting with a warm activity or question and a wellness check.  Ask them how they are feeling today and what they are excited about! 
• Opening Ceremony : Officially open your troop meeting by reciting the Girl Scout Promise and Law.
• Activities : Engage your Cadettes in the exciting activities to earn their badges. Involve your Cadettes in the planning of badge activities for each meeting.
• Closing Ceremony : End your meeting by reviewing what you have learned together and asking Cadettes to share their favorite part of the meeting. Congratulate Cadettes on their accomplishments.
• Follow Up with Families : After the meeting, remember to share with families all the great things their Cadettes accomplished!
• When you can get outside, do it! Go for a small trip or simply meet in a new space. Shaking things up occasionally keeps things exciting
• Check with your council to see if they’re offering events or activities that your troop could attend. Those events make life easier for you and allow your troop to connect with other Girl Scouts from their area. Many councils and service units host annual World Thinking Day events in February.
• If any of the recommended program options is not the right fit, or if you want to give your Girl Scouts the chance to shape their own experience, have them vote to choose a different badge or activity within the same focus area. When you enable Girl-led activities, girls step up and take ownership of their decisions, they grow into confident leaders who can make informed and empowered decisions—a valuable skill they’ll carry throughout their lives.  Check out  our Award and Badge Explorer for other badge favorites, our latest release of new programs, or visit the Girl Scout Activity Zone .
• Access free detailed instructions to lead each of the meetings included in these troop year plans through the Volunteer Toolkit (VTK).  Simply log in or create a member account from mygs.girlscouts.org .  Once you log in, from the left navigation menu choose “Volunteer Toolkit.” Then choose “Explore,” “Pre-Selected Tracks,” “Fun and Friendship” and you’re set! See step-by-step access instructions .
• Access other easy-to-follow volunteer essentials to keep you organized and inspired.
• Access volunteer training from gsLearn for easy access to essential training and courses to lead activities the Girl Scout way.
• Simply log in via myGS.girlscouts.org and search for “GSUSA Brownie badges” or other topics of interest.  Each course will show you how to bring the badge content to life for your Brownie troop.
• See step-by-step access instructions .

Give your troop another year of growth, laughter, and the confidence they need to be their most authentic selves!
