What can you do in 40 minutes? A lot! You don't need time for a snack
or to clean up, so maximize the time with your Girl Scouts.
Arrival Activity (5 minutes): Consider having a welcome question on
the screen for the girls to answer either in the chat box or on screen
if you enable the annotation tool.
Opening Ceremony (5 minutes): Recite the Girl Scout Promise and Law,
say the Pledge of Allegiance, sing a song together. Whatever you’d
normally say or sing together — do it here!
Business (3 minutes): Share any news and agenda.
Main Activity (12 minutes): This is a great time to work on badge or
Journey activities! Think about what you can send the girls the day
before or the morning of the meeting so that they can come in prepared
to interact. That helps you make the most of your time. Remember: You
can screen share, so anything that you can put on your screen can be
shared — like videos, pictures, and more.
Closing (5 minutes): A modified Friendship Circle is possible!
Instead of squeezing a hand, have each girl say the name of another
person in your virtual circle. Encourage the girls to be creative!
