VNGS NORTH- SCIENCE CAMP REFLECTIONS

Date: 31/08/19

Venue: Velammal NewGen Schools, Surapet, Madhavaram, Thiruvottiyur.            

The Science Camp inauguration in each of the VNGS North Schools was standardised

with the following agenda:

 Prayer song

 Welcome Address by the respective Principals

 Introduction of the Science camp to the parents – its purpose and outcome using PPT

as the tool by the Science Teachers.

 Chief guest address

 Dispersal to specific rooms allotted for learners presentation

 Presentation by the learners

 Monitoring by the judges using the rubrics shared.

 Feedback from parents

 Feedback from learners 

           The theme for the Science camp was “Conservation of Energy” which was adhered with our year planner for this month. Timeline was shared for our teachers and learners from its inception till project submission. The learners selected their research on six broader

categories as

1. Action research

2. Experimental method

3. Survey method

4. Mini documentary

5. Working model

6. Investigatory Project 

Learners were motivated to do their research either individually or as a group project.

Learners prepared PPT for their presentation. All the experimental procedures were carried

out by the learners flawlessly. They took turns to present their part. The group effort was

evidenced during their presentation. They extended their learning. They posed questions to

other group members and got clarifications. Inquiry learning was evidenced. The judges

posed questions to increase their critical thinking skill. They gave good feedback.

The parents gave positive comments on the work of the learners and the effort of the

Heads and teachers.

Thank you Heads, peer team and Teachers for your support on the grand success of the

program.
