Dossier F1 - A Role Modelling Kit For Kindergarten – Grade Three

This file consists of a role modelling kit that Women in Trades and Technology (WITT) National Network contracted WITT Nova Scotia to develop. It was designed to facilitate local WITT groups in providing role modelling programs for young children. This guide was used to plan and organize classroom visits. The guide provides background information that demonstrates why role modelling is important for girls in this age group; the steps and process to guide local WITT Groups, as well as female role models and educators in preparing for classroom visits; a suggested list of activities to use before, during and after classroom visits; details on setting up and using the Tool Trunks; a bibliography that includes resources about other role modelling programs.
