Tiger Den - First Grade

Tigers and their adult partners work together as they attend meetings together, go on adventures like field trips together, and complete requirements together.

The adult partner acknowledges the completion of each achievement part by marking it complete in Scoutbook (Akela’s OK). The den leader also marks it as completed in Scoutbook (Den Leader’s OK) and records progress in the den’s advancement records. The Tiger Scouts also keep track of their own advancement using the Adventure Tracking section in the back of their handbooks.

For Ages 6/7 or in 1st Grade
