"Little Astronomers" in December

This December, students presented astronomers who shaped our understanding of the universe. We were especially thrilled to showcase our native genius, Nicolaus Copernicus.

During workshops, students invented interview questions and posed them to an AI-generated Copernicus chatbot. It was an exciting way to practice English, refresh history knowledge, and have a lot of fun imagining conversations with the great astronomer himself!

A highlight of the part of the project was a stunning coal portrait of Copernicus drawn by Year 8a student Marysia.

During our Novemeber meeting, we created a tutorial video demonstrating how to assemble two types of telescopes: a reflector and a refractor. We hope that our video will help beginners in astronomy confidently set up their telescopes and start exploring the night sky. The session was a great mix of learning, creativity, and teamwork!

We are happy to announce that our school is participating in the international eTwinning project, Little Astronomers. This initiative brings together children from Turkey, Azerbaijan, Jordan, Portugal, Romania, Greece, and Poland, with our school proudly representing Poland. The main goals of the project are to improve English language skills and provide foundational knowledge in astronomy.

In October, the pupils designed a proposal for a project logo and attended an evening workshop on the solar system held at our school. The highlight of the event was a collaborative sky-watching session, where students had the opportunity to feel like real astronomers.

The Little Astronomers project is not only focused on science but also encourages learning about different cultures and fosters a passion for exploring the mysteries of the cosmos.

Z radością informujemy, że nasza szkoła bierze udział w międzynarodowym projekcie E-twinning "Little Astronomers". Projekt ten łączy dzieci z różnych krajów: Turcji, Azerbejdżanu, Jordanii, Portugalii, Rumunii, Grecji oraz Polski, którą reprezentuje nasza szkoła. Jego głównym celem jest podniesienie umiejętności języka angielskiego oraz zdobycie podstawowej wiedzy z zakresu astronomii.

 It' s time to say goodbye. We're closing the project today.

It's been a pleasure for all of us to work together. We have an impression that we have made something important. We could show our creativity, cooperation and openness. It has really brought us together.

Good luck with your future challenges!

We made this album to never forget our work. It looks like a journey through our countries. You'll also find it here what we've done in the project.
