A Visit to Planetarium

Within the framework of the European programme COMENIUS, the children of E and F classes, along with their teachers, visited the Planetarium Kosmotheater in Thessaloniki. The pupils watched three short films about our solar system, the constellations and their names. The films were particularly impressive and aroused the interest of children. At the end of the programme, the children were very happy and, most importantly, they wanted to learn more about the topic with which we dealt in the first term. That is, our visit to the planetarium, acted as a motive for children to search and explore.
