The great questions students ask!

“I am very happy to share with you my final report of what I was planning to do with my students since last week, that we have managed to launch our water rocket yesterday but it was a day of trial and error. It helped us to identify our mistakes so that we can improve them. I know that this can make someone to blast with laughter but we are very happy as through practice make us to be perfect.

As per yesterday it can be seen that we use fins made of boxes that later we discovered that when [the rocket takes off] they get water and failed to properly well. But today we managed to change [the fins] and with very high speed like that of super jet speed!

Therefore since we started the project with my students they were very exited with it and always they asked me much questions, such as:

“Will it be possible to enter and insert a seat or chairs?”
“Does it mean that all rockets used the same water mechanism to fly?”
“What if a rocket fails to fly? Will there be any side effects to both animal and plant?”
“What are the necessary things to be adhered before launching?”

Also as it can seen on pics, those students with green pullover-sweater are those with special needs (both hearing and speaking), Albinism, and Intellectual Impermanent. For sure they enjoyed a lot as they can be seen trying to pump the water rocket. Not only that but also through the practice they have a message from their fellow students and intellectual world wide that even students people with disability they can do more and good things like others. Therefore we should stop the habit of despising [those who are challenged], telling them that they cannot.

Finally, Ilboru Primary school students say that through Astronomy we all can integrate and make be as one as we can be entertained, learn and show different talent that we have, you’re are all welcome to learn and enjoyed together. Thank you!” –Eliatosh Maleko, Instructor at Ilboro Primary School and Astronomy Ambassador for the Mt. Meru Astronomical Observatory.
