Hello, this is Bhushan from GLI.

 

On September 18 (Sun.), at the GLI Musashi-Kosugi SchoolFirst time to hold a full-scale event.The first is the "A" in the "A" column,Field Trip.was held! This time the destination wasHAMAGIN SPACE SCIENCE CENTERIt was. (Photo: HP)

I hope to report on the actual situation in this blog. Best regards!

 

Again.We received so many inquiries that we offered the position to a maximum of 10 people, and it was quickly filled.Final implementation with '11 members'.The company was

 

The purpose of this field trip was,''Why can we, the human race, only live on Earth and not on other planets? to help people understand."'" It was. So, we started with the students.

 

Knowledge of the solar system and the universe

● Get to know the names of the planets in English

 

before going to the Space Science Museum, with the aim to "Preliminary Study."The company has conducted a

And that's the purpose of this field trip, with its preliminary study.

 

'Why do you think humans can't live anywhere but on Earth?'

 

I posed the question, "What is the best way to do it? Then.

 

Because other planets are "colder" than Earth.

Because other planets are "hotter" than Earth.

The other planets have "no water or air."

 

The answer was "yes". Now, is the student's answer correct?To find the answer, we departed for the main event, "Hamagin Children's Space Science Museum".I did.

 

The first thing I experienced wasThe Gravity Experience."It is. The students experienced the difference in "weight" between being on Earth and being on other planets.

What's the real difference?" you may feel, so I will explain it in my Bhushan's case. I am "69kg" right now,On the moon, it weighs "12 kg"; on Jupiter, "177 kg."will be.

 

Here the students are,On a planet other than Earth, "the weight you feel is different."I was surprised to learn that the weight of each planet is so different depending on its gravity.

 

In fact, we had to lift a 1 kg weight with an activity in the science museum, and we worked hard to lift what would be "28.01 kg" if we lifted the same weight with the sun.

Through these activities, we also received feedback from students that they'On other planets, things would be too heavy for humans to live?'I thought it was a very good question that came up through the experience.

 

Other activities included puzzles, catching a ball with a robot arm, and seeing actual static electricity, before returning to the classroom.

After returning to the classroom, we will build on what we learned at the science museum,Create solar system craftsI did.

What is the order of the solar system and how do we say each planet in English? Reflection on what you have learned, such asthrough crafts, and the field trip was completed.

Through field trips,Not only was it a new experience, but I learned about the solar system and why it is impossible for humans to live on other planets. I was able to learn through hands-on experience about theI think.

 

If you are a parent of a student who attended and is wondering "Why can't humans live on other planets?" about this question, please ask your child!

 

At GLI events, including field trips,Providing not only fun, but also learning new themes through English while having fun.I am doing this.

 

Please join us at future GLI events if you are interested. Thank you for taking the time to read my report.
