If you wonder, "Why does the word 'dziewczynka' and 'chlopiec' needs an 'a' even if there is no 'a' in the sentence?" Well, Polish doesn't HAVE articles. Basically, 'dziewczynka' means A GIRL and 'chlopiec' means A BOY.
Let's look at the following sentence: Mezczyzna pije wode. Translation: A man is drinking water. In this case the word 'water' doesn't add an article because of English grammar (uncountable)
I hope this helps to many Duolingo users that have a problem! <3
