“From a principle to a dream the story was”
We were a small group consist of students from Bethlehem University, who believed in the message of sunshine4Palestine team. For this reason, we decided to join them as science4people BU team, at this point we decided to take our first step and begin from somewhere.
AL-Masoudi primary school for girls was our first destination. We introduced 7 scientific experiments for kids their ages between 6-8 years old. We were so proud to say that 90 students enjoyed our first event. Our experiments were simple and easy as the ones we taught from the sunshine4Palestine team when they visited us. At the end, despite all the circumstances that faced us when we held this event, we can say that it was the first step for us toward another success.
“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”
In our second event we moved to one of the biggest colleges in Bethlehem, to Terra Santa College. We presented 10 new and not classical science experiments for students from 8th grade, who were almost 100 students. Our experiments were interesting and useful, which give the students new information, and give them a chance to practice what they learned previously. This was another step for us toward our goals and success.
“We were so excited to continue what we began”
Our next destination was the Lutheran Evangelical school, in this event we change our strategy by trained a group of school students to stand with us and present the experiments for their colleagues. WE presented 20 experiments for students who their ages were between 13 – 18 years old. The experiments were suitable for all the students who came, they were simple, but at the same time they need thinking and analyzing. We can say that we are happy that more than 230 students were with us and enjoyed our experiments.
“The ball is in our court”
We always take the advantage of any event that gets anywhere to develop and expand our team, and to help us achieve our goals, we continued our journey in the Bethlehem University Science Fair, in which we got a special place to present our experiments to the biggest attendees, more than 400 students from different schools visited us in a two days event! We presented more than 25 experiments.
