Science Day at the European School
Within celebrations of the IB’s 50th anniversary, the European School organized Science Day on April 20, 2018. Using chemicals, grade 10 students, Davit Grigolia, Misha Pruidze, Ana Akhalaia and Nini Dagargulia, applied fake cuts on their skin, pranking the guests and fellow students who gathered around and watched them in astonishment.
During the day, open lessons were conducted: “The Earth and Beyond;” “The Lake Nyos Diaster;” “Melting and Boiling;” “Classifying the Natural World;” “Reaction Rate;” “Inhabitants of Africa and Australia,“ etc. Students attended an interesting and informative lecture on sleep and dreams, and then, showed Physics experiments to the audience to pique younger students’ interest in natural sciences.
The school courtyard was filled with action – students organized a Chemistry show, displaying liquid nitrogen popcorn, erupting foams, Science magic tricks with fire, etc. They got to test the Physics Lab equipment that is normally used for the lab experiments.
The day ended with a Georgian Program Assembly. Georgian Program students presented their projects, skits and plays, and performed for the audience.
