Girl Scouts

Girl Scout Activities Overview: These activities have everything Girl Scouts need to complete the Digital Movie Maker and Screenwriter Badges through the lens of  Route 66 History.  The activities are in a suggested order, but they can be done in whatever order works for you or your troop. Most of the activities should take about 1-1.5 hours to complete with the exception of some that involve filming or gathering footage outside of the meetings. Activities, or portions of them, could also be assigned to scouts for completion at home.

All materials available in Google Drive and PDF formats.
