Cadette Corner: Badge Selection, aMaze Journey & Silver Award Follow-up

Cadettes
Asalaamu Alaikum Ladies,

Great start identifying the badges that you are interested in. As we discussed in the last troop meeting, the excel document for badges has been shared with the group. Please update it with your speaker information (teachers / former teachers / people you know / parents / etc.).

We will revisit the badge assignment at the first troop meeting in January 2016 inshaAllah. That means there is still time for all girls to work on providing information for badges they are interested in.

aMaze Journey participants:

  1. Read pages 1-30; pick out the 3 interactions for the Interact portion of the badge
  2. Read about the Peacemaker portion of your badge. You will turn in your peacemaker box / vision board on the January 8, 2016 inshaAllah.

Silver Award participants:

  1. Good Start! Share your documents and make sure everyone in the group follows through. Remember that you have an hour requirement of 50 hours for every group member for the Silver Award. Download the Silver Award Guidelines, the Silver Award Time Log and follow the steps.
  2. Set up your meetings after the group members have done what they were assigned to do.
  3. Check back with me by January 8, 2016

Cadette Corner: Meeting Update

Cadettes
Asalaamu Alaikum,

Sis Kieta did a great presentation on proposals at the last meeting. See the info below for future reference or to catch up:

Silver Award Project Proposal Form – Example 2

Silver Award Project Proposal Form – Example 1

Take Action Project Defined

For the next meeting Cadettes must work in their grade groups (6th, 7th or 8th graders) to:

  1. Find out what is outstanding for your journey and make a plan to complete it. Give yourself an attainable deadline and reach out for help.
  2. Completed group answers to the questions provided during the session. Project: Growing vegetables to give harvest to local soup kitchen or food pantry.
  3. Information is emailed by one person in your group. Use the Cadette roster to work in your groups before the next meeting.

Remember that journey awards will not be given out this year without a proposal approval. Put your energy into completing it and turning it in for approval. Once the group work is done, take it to the next level. Girls who need to complete Take Action projects should bounce their ideas off of their group members so that they can turn their proposals in and get to work! Work smarter, not harder.

Ma salaama

Sis. Kesha
