Fourth and Fifth Grade
Girls Leadership offers two workshops for this age group.
Say How You Feel. Ask For What You Need. Fourth and fifth grade are often the years in which girls experience significant shifts in their self-confidence and increasing social pressures to conform. It is this transitional age where girls' voices tend to become silenced. Parents and daughters will practice using the skills of assertive self-expression through activities, discussion, and paired scenarios. The workshop gives girls and parents the opportunity to have fun, to bond, and to work together to explore the importance of healthy and productive conflict. (90 minutes)

Immersion Weekend Workshops
