This Week in Our Classroom:
This week, our students delved into the fascinating world of Relativity! Through engaging discussions and thought-provoking experiments, we explored Einstein’s theories of Special and General Relativity. Students analyzed time dilation, the speed of light, and how gravity affects time. A highlight was our interactive simulation, where students visualized how time slows down near massive objects like black holes!
Student Spotlight:
A big shoutout to Reed and Gonzalo for their insightful questions about how relativity applies to GPS satellites. Their curiosity helped the entire class connect theory to real-world applications!
Looking Ahead:
Next week, we will take our understanding of relativity even further by examining black holes and gravitational waves. Students will also work on a creative project, designing a sci-fi story that incorporates real relativity concepts!
