Fun with Science: Exploring the Wonders of Science in Classes KG to 2 On Friday, 17th January 2025, the students of Classes KG to 2 at St. Jude’s School embarked on an exciting journey into the magical world of science. Through fun experiments and hands-on activities, the event was thoughtfully designed to make learning joyful while sparking curiosity and wonder in our young learners. The little scientists of Class KG explored the concept of air through playful activities. They also participated in a Sink or Float activity, predicting and testing whether objects like coins, leaves, and toys would sink or stay on top of the water. This simple yet engaging experiment helped them understand why some objects feel heavier or lighter in water in a fun and interactive way. The students of Class 1 had an amazing time conducting a variety of exciting experiments. In the Turmeric and Detergent Experiment, they observed how turmeric changes color when mixed with detergent. This hands-on activity taught them how some substances can change when combined, making the idea of material changes easy to understand. They also enjoyed the Pepper and Detergent Activity, where pepper represented germs on their hands. Washing their hands with detergent showed how the “germs” (pepper) were washed away, reinforcing the importance of proper handwashing to stay healthy. Additionally, the students explored air pressure through the Air and Water Experiment using plastic bottles. By filling bottles with water and poking holes, they observed how water flowed out. Closing the lid stopped the flow, helping them understand how air pushes against water to control its movement. In Class 2, students explored the concept of Day and Night using a torch and a ball. The torch symbolized the Sun, and the ball represented Earth. By rotating the ball, they saw how the side facing the torch experienced “day,” while the other side remained in “night.” This simple demonstration beautifully explained how Earth spins to create day and night. They also learned about the Function of the Lungs through a balloon and straw experiment. By blowing into a straw attached to a balloon, they watched the balloon expand, mimicking how our lungs fill with air when we breathe in. Releasing the air showed how lungs push air out, making this essential process easy to visualize and fun to learn. Fun with Science Day was a delightful experience, with students enjoying every moment of discovery and exploration. Events like these not only make learning enjoyable but also inspire curiosity and critical thinking in our students, nurturing them into future problem-solvers and innovators.
