This is an interactive multimedia site designed to get Tween girls excited about Science and reaffirm that it's cool if you already do. I spent a little time poking around the videos and games, and they wer nice, gave an overview, seemed engaging.
What I especially liked though was the Projects page, where you're given a ton of options, including submitting your own projects.
Another gem on the site is the "For Teachers and "For Parents" pages.
This quote especially caught my eye.
"Every girl can be a SciGirl with a groundbreaking new TV show and interactive website that will transform the way tween girls look at science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). "
Here is an additional link that takes you to the site's Educational Philosophy.

Dan has done it again. Whenever any one involved in mathematics at a school or district level asks me about a blog to read, I always recommend Dan's. The guy is brilliant and a tremendous teacher. He "flipped" the script here and instead of the traditional let's work on something, or let me show you something, he threw out the "teach me something." LOVE IT! The comments are pretty great.
