At this workshop, we get together with the children to dig into a star map and unearth the secrets of the stars we see in the night sky, plumb the depths of outer space to explore stars and galaxies. We learn about the sun, the closest one to our Earth, and then, other stars and life phases in the distant depths of the universe. We explore the nebula-supernova black hole forms that occur at the birth and death of super stars. With the help of interactive practices that stimulate imagination, we try to perceive how far stars are from our Earth, examine constellations in 3D. During this workshop, we enhance cognitive, socio-emotional and psychomotor skills through the inquiry-based learning method.
