Description: Count Girls In by Karen Panetta, Katianne Williams Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Maybe you have a daughter who loves cooking, soccer, and musicals. Maybe shes a social butterfly, an athlete, a fashionista, and a humanitarian who wants to change the world. Be honest-do you think, Well, shes clearly not a math and science kid? Do you assume that certain classes and careers wont appeal to her? Count Girls In challenges these assumptions and presents a totally different way of thinking: there is a place for all girls and young women-not just the science fair winners and robotics club members-in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields, if we can keep their (and our) minds and options open and meet them where they are. To succeed in STEM fields today, girls dont have to change who they are. A girl who combines her natural talents, interests, and dreams with STEM skills has a greater shot than ever before at a career she loves and a salary she deserves. Count Girls In encourages parents and other adults to raise authentic young women who have the confidence to put STEM to work in a way that best serves them and their passions. The authors, both STEM professionals, present compelling research in a conversational, accessible style and provide specific advice and takeaways for each stage of schooling, from elementary school through college, followed by comprehensive STEM resources. This isnt a book about raising competitive, test-acing girls in lab coats; this is about raising happy, confident girls who realize the world of opportunities before them.
