4TH GRADE B/ THE TERRARIUMS WERE AMAZING!

4B/AIPCV/2011

It was a great pleasure to enjoy the terrariums made by students with the help of their parents for the Science Class. Students could understand in an easy way terms related to the study of ECOSYSTEMS like population, community, habitat, producers, consumers, and dicomposers.
CONGRATULATIONS STUDENTS!

SCIENCE CLUB

AIPCV/SCIENCE CLUB/ 2011

The benefits of running a science club

Research shows that 'Out of School Hours Learning' (often known as OSHL, OSL or OOSHL) or 'Study Support' is widely recognised to lead to improvements in school performance. This can manifest as improved motivation and a positive impact on attitudes. In addition, in one study in Northern Ireland 84% of post-primary principals said that it contributed to raised attainment.

There are benefits for:

Pupils

•Practice at the process skills needed in science.


•Increased opportunity to develop and practice thinking, speaking and listening skills.


•Opportunities to experience a wider range of science topics, hence broadening their enthusiasm for science.
