Workshops and experiments in physics

The Bloomfield Science Museum in Jerusalem hosts 170,000 visitors every year, of which 70,00 are school students. Students visit the museum as part of their science curriculum, to experience hands on engagement with exhibits and labs. When the war started, the museum staff volunteered on an individual basis in various locations.

Now, the museum contacted the Ministry of Education’s physics teaching superintendent, to provide a more structured response, that would be aligned with the learning needs of students. They propose holding 20 workshops for 300 secondary school students, that would include experiments with topics such as energy, motion, and optics.
