On May 23-26, our 4th graders visited the Rahmi Koç Museum and attended the Colorful World of Mathematics workshop. They discovered the “touchable, lovable” side of mathematics by seeing that mathematics is not “incomprehensible, inaccessible” with interactive experiment sets. They had the opportunity to learn by thinking, playing and having fun with experiments such as puzzles, optical illusion, sound, probability, pattern, speed-movement in the workshop. In this workshop, they developed their mathematical thinking skills by enjoying the freedom to touch and experiment.

The 2nd Student Symposium in the Footsteps of Thinkers was held at our School on Saturday, May 27, with the participation of our students from seven different schools across Istanbul. After the opening speeches at the symposium, the participating students focused on the theme of “Man’s Loneliness in Fictional Texts”; They examined the works determined in the novel, short story, poem and cinema sessions with the critical reading method.

Its aim is to enable high school students to share the cultural knowledge they have acquired through literature lessons, to have a say in this subject by determining their awareness of literature education, to recognize artists who have produced works in the fields of novel, story, poetry, theater and cinema in our country and in the world, by young generations, such as thinking, researching and interpreting. We would like to thank our teachers and students who organized the “Student Symposium in the Footsteps of Thinkers”.

This year, our 9th grade students learned about the conditions that were decisive in the formation of civilizations that emerged throughout history and in the evolution of human beings in social, political and cultural fields, in the sample of Ancient civilizations.

First of all, our students understood their geographical structures and the effects of geography on production styles in their Geography lessons. In history lessons, they witnessed the effects of geographical structure features on economic systems of states, how economic systems shape social classes and political structures. They saw the reflections of all these processes on their religious beliefs and legal systems. They understood the reasons for the differences of people living on Earth. With these differences, they thought about how the states would live in peace.

Our students had the opportunity to embody what they learned while learning for a whole year. They recognized an imaginary world prepared by our geography teacher on the three-dimensional topography maps they prepared. In their history lessons, they built their own civilization on this geography. In their ceramic lessons, they designed children’s toys by taking into account the characteristics of civilizations. In their painting classes, they painted images reflecting the different cultural characteristics of their civilization.

Civilizations on 6 planets, consisting of the civilizations created by our students, were exhibited in the C block of High School. We congratulate all our students for their hard work.
