Fun in Physics Lab

Doesn't the picture make you think my Physics students in 5 Anggerik are doing some crazy stunts seemingly hanging upside down from some beam?

Relax - that's just an image from a convex lens and the image is inverted (upside down ) so it looks as if the girl is upside down but truth is she is just standing normal and raising her hands up.

,

You can see my girls are safely grounded right way up on solid ground - it is just their image on the white screen which is upside down . Even the reflection of the girls in the convex lens show they are standing right way up normally

Our beautiful Harkiren from 5 Anggerik smiling happily and showing off our SMK Convent Sentul badge.

This is one of the essential elements we want to incorporate in learning and teaching here in Convent Sentul Hands-On, Heads On and Hearts on Learning.

Learning hands-on by successfully conducting the experiment.

Learning heads-on by understanding the image on the white screen is inverted, diminished and real and being able to measure the focal length accurately by measuring distance from the lens center to the screen for a distant object using a ruler.

And finally hearts on learning - her grin that says it all and both students and teacher have enjoyed the lesson.

My prayer and hope for Convent Sentul is that this scenario of real meaningful learning that brings smiles to teachers and students be found in every single classroom in SMK Convent Sentul.
