Start With Free STEM Classes For Girls
We recommend elementary and middle school girls begin by learning Scratch coding. Designed by MIT, Scratch introduces students to coding concepts in a fun, visual way. Through Scratch, girls learn to think logically, break down complex problems, and create their own interactive projects such as games and animations—key skills needed in STEM fields like computer science, engineering, and technology.
Girls in high school can begin with real-world programming language Python if they prefer. Python programming is a versatile, beginner-friendly language used in many fields like data science, artificial intelligence, robotics, and engineering. Learning Python helps girls develop strong problem-solving and computational thinking skills, which are essential for tackling complex challenges in STEM. Python's widespread use in industries from tech to research makes it a valuable tool for future career opportunities.
Girls with previous coding experience may want to get started learning Roblox coding, which introduces girls to game development and coding in a creative, hands-on environment. Through Roblox Studio and Lua scripting, girls learn essential programming concepts, problem-solving skills, and the basics of computational thinking, which are key foundations for fields such as software development, engineering, and computer science.
Girls who enjoy building and experimenting with electronics may want to try a free Snap Circuits class, which introduces them to the basics of electrical engineering and circuit design in a fun, hands-on way. This engaging introduction to electronics provides a strong foundation for future exploration in fields like electrical engineering, robotics, and technology.

Inspiring Girls To Pursue STEM
Research shows that girls typically become interested in STEM between the ages of 13 and 18. This interest is influenced by their school classes, participation in STEM activities, and exposure to STEM content in pop culture from television to books. Foster your child’s interest by supporting hands-on learning experiences, such as coding classes, science fairs, and math competitions, and highlighting the real-world impact that STEM careers can have —whether it’s solving global challenges, advancing technology, or improving healthcare. Most importantly, build your daughter’s confidence by celebrating her efforts and progress, showing her that she can thrive in any field she chooses!
Promote Positive Role Models and Mentorship
Highlight the achievements of women in STEM by sharing their stories through books, documentaries, or simply displaying their photos and contributions around your home or classroom. Additionally, provide opportunities for girls to connect with female mentors in STEM fields — whether through local programs, online communities, or school events and clubs.
Introduce STEM Through Creative and Real-Life Projects
Engage girls in STEM by introducing real-life projects that connect to their passions, such as designing solutions for environmental challenges, building simple machines, or conducting experiments related to space exploration. For example, the National Science Foundations Game Maker Awards Competition encourages students to design video games with the theme Life in 2100.
Start Early and Make it Fun
Start girls early in STEM by introducing fun, hands-on activities like building with LEGO robotics, exploring nature through simple science experiments, learning computer science with fun Scratch coding, or learning basic math through games. Early exposure to STEM concepts helps build a strong foundation, and sets kids up to imagine a future STEM career.
