This year GSUSA released a new set of "progressive" badges dealing with the design and manufacturing of automobiles. While in some ways badges in a progressive badge series are meant to build on each other, in general, I have not found that to mean that girls cannot do the second badge in a series before the first. What I have found is that the badge inserts for the progressive badges give background information on the topics rather than suggested activities. The real plans for the badge are in VTK and they are presented as unified lesson plans, not as choices of activities.
Today I am taking a look at the third badge in the new Automotive group, Automobile Manufacturing, and I'm looking at the Brownie plan.
Requirements:
According to
Badge Explorer, with this badge girls will: Experience the importance of having a plan and discover how manufacturers build lots of vehicles that are safe and well made!
