Professor Science show at St Augustine's primary school
On the 23rd of April 2009, as part of my course of Bachelor of Education, my peers and I contributed in a Professor Science show. We attended to St Augustines's primary school for the first time to introduce ourselves and provide the students with a quick rundown of the experiments that we were going to do for the next 5 weeks.
The peers in my group are Peter, Sokunthea, Nicole and I. we were put into a class of grade 2's and 3's, which i found comfortable and esay to interact with the students.
While we were there providing informations to the students, our role was to observe the students understanding and learning skills about science. The topic that was discussed was on "space". As a results, many students could provide facts about space. There was many intresting questions questioned by the students such as, how many minutes does it take to get to Mars?. It was a tough question and i was amazed how a young student could come up with such intresting yet hard to answer question.
According to my observation on the students understanding are that they're very bright, curious, excited about science and are intrested in learning.
Being able to be out in a primary school, teaching and interacting with the students is an amazing feeling. After returning back to the University, i had the energy and the enthusiasiam to focus on my task and homework.The students were adorable.
