"What planets are in the universe?" On the afternoon ......of May 16, Wang Kechao, a teacher from the activity group of Jiangsu Provincial Cultural Center's "Running Township with Beauty - Aesthetic Education into the Countryside", brought a unique "Beauty of the Universe" astronomy class in Class 5 (2) of the Pomegranate Street Lecture Primary School in Donghai County, Lianyungang City, which built an astronomical learning platform for more than 40 students and lit up their "science and technology dream".
The lecturer, Wang Kechao, holds a master's degree in astrometry and celestial mechanics from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and is the director of science popularization at the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. In the class, Mr. Wang first introduced the concept of planets to the children, so that the children could have a preliminary understanding of "what astronomy is" and improve the children's interest in astronomy. He used humorous and vivid language to tell the children the mysteries of the universe, leading the children into the mysterious universe and appreciating the magical scenery of the universe. By telling stories such as "Chang'e Running to the Moon, Boasting His Father Chasing the Sun, and Wandering the Earth", Mr. Wang taught the students astronomical science knowledge in easy-to-understand language, and the children listened very attentively, were deeply attracted by scientific and technological knowledge, and swam in the ocean of scientific and technological knowledge with great interest. Teacher Wang combined text and video data to explain, interacted with the children, presented the children with the relevant materials of the moon phase demonstration box on the spot, taught the children to make the moon phase demonstration box, and taught the children how to observe the changes of the moon through the moon phase demonstration box through the stage demonstration and off-stage interaction, and brought the children to the mysterious "starry sky world".
This vivid astronomy lesson not only inspired the children's desire to explore the universe, but also ignited the children's "science and technology dream", which resonated with the five (2) students, and thunderous applause broke out many times in the classroom. "Mr. Wang's astronomy class is so exciting, I love to listen to it, I want to study hard and explore the mysteries of the universe when I grow up." Sun Ziqi said excitedly.
The activity of "Running the Township with Beauty - Aesthetic Education in the Countryside of Jiangsu Provincial Cultural Center" is an innovative national art popularization model that implements the national rural revitalization strategy and promotes cultural revitalization. Today, our activity group of "Running the Township with Beauty - Aesthetic Education into the Countryside" is opening an astronomy course in the primary school, which is to guide children to actively explore the mysterious universe, hoping to plant the seeds of love for science in their hearts and light up their wisdom and dreams!
