SciGirls is back this April with six brand-new episodes! As recent new fans of the PBS Kids show, which features real girls showing a real love of STEM, my kindergartener and I can’t wait to see what new science adventures are waiting for them in this third season.
The theme of the new season is “citizen science.” Here’s the latest info about what that means for the SciGirls:
Citizen science is the hottest new STEM frontier that engages the general public -and kids! – in real science. Scientists worldwide invite ordinary people–like the SciGirls–to observe and record data about everything from birds to beaches, monarch butterflies to maple trees. The data is then shared with scientists, who use it to generate new scientific knowledge.
New episodes premiere in April on your local PBS station, so check the listings to catch the girls in action.
The new season will also will also be available online nationwide starting April 15 on the official SciGirls web site.
I look forward to their performance every year. One of the best bands of the last twenty years.
