Proud winners
I know...
The school on first floor, on the road...
Hello!
Cheers! Today we conducted 25th TAS Program.
Today we visited the municipal school no.1 at Noble nagar, Ahmedabad.
As usual, we were accorded a warm welcome by the students and the authorities excitedly awaiting the program. The school was on the first floor and ground floor was occupied by shops. We were lucky to find balcony facing west.
The poster display was set up for the students to explore the mysteries of the solar system at their own pace. And we watched them peruse the information and discuss the same with their friends.
The program started with observation of Venus. They were particularly amazed to see Venus’s near crescent phase. During the interactive session that followed, the slides of Sun & Saturn fascinated them all. Another wonderful thing that gave us tremendous satisfaction is that the teachers too got into the spirit of things and participated wholeheartedly in the question – answer sessions that interspersed the presentation! Questions like who was the first Indian to go to space, how big the Sun & Jupiter are from earth’ created some interesting debates. Some exceptionally bright students like Kanaiyo Darji and Yogesh Pandya answered my questions with amazing clarity and were awarded prizes at the end of the presentation. Both, the teachers and students, were especially keen to have us come again to give them a deeper understanding. At the end they all took our blessings and left the classroom.
We acknowledge the gracious support of the following people in making this program a success: Jigar Darji & Stephen Samuel who arranged everything and Urvi Vyas to take pictures and helped explain students during observation. We thank them all for their interest.
