Goldilocks on Trial

Goldilocks was found not guilty of having bad manners by the Girl Scouts of East Providence.

Last month, East Providence Girl Scouts participated in a scripted mock trial of Goldilocks vs the Three Bears in the case of whether Goldilocks had bad manners.

During the program, older Girl Scouts, along with two female lawyers, read a script acting as Papa, Mama, Baby Bear, Goldilocks, and her mom Curl E. Locks. Participating Girl Scouts had the opportunity to learn about and take part in the judicial process. Girls learned about the parts of a courtroom, the different roles of various professions, and worked through the jury process to decide if Goldilocks showed bad manners. After much deliberation, the Girl Scouts found Goldilocks not guilty of bad manners.

We would like to thank all the volunteers and organizers who made this a fun learning experience.
