Am 5. Schouljoer schaffe mir am Moment um transdisziplinärem Thema "Wou mir op Plaz an Zäit sinn". De Fokus vun eiser Eenheet ass wéi d'Wëssen déi mir aus dem Weltraum kréien exploration affects our understanding of the universe and has a direct impact on our life on Earth.
After learning about how spacesuits keep astronauts alive, we decided to focus on the insulating nature of spacesuits and spacecrafts. The students learned about heat transfer, then they designed insulated space capsules and measured the heat lost from hot water over a 30-minute period. We will use this data in maths class to plot line graphs and to compare the efficiency of our space capsules against our control (a regular paper cup).
