X’hemM? GΔ§al Dinja AΔ§jar 2021 activies
Classes 4 Roses, 5 Tulips and 6 Daffodils are participating in a STEM Project. Such project integrates the areas of Science, Technology and Mathematics in order to help learners to develop the skills of creativity, teamwork and problem solving. In one of the activities, learners had to explore the terms sink and float. The teachers introduced the session through the unfortunate story of the Titanic. After watching footages of this ship, learners had the opportunity to discuss what makes a ship float. On the second day, learners participated in an experiment. The teachers showed them different materials (kebab stick, coins, straw β¦). Learners first had to predict which materials float or sink and then they tested the materials. On the third day, learners had to build a model of a ship. First they discussed the material and the design of ships. Then, they were encouraged to buy the best materials to build their own boat.
