A Heartwarming Note from a Parent

A parent sent a Thank-You note to one of our trainers.

Students also wrote in their thoughts and feelings about trainers who have been coaching them this entire semester:

Question from Weekly Prized Science Hub Challenge (12 November)

Closing Date: 25 November 2012

Since young, Rayne has a big interest in automotive. He loves collecting various types of car miniatures, starting from racing cars, luxury cars, ambulances, and even military tanks.

To satisfy his interest, his parents brought him to visit their relative who works in an automobile service centre.

While walking around the place, Rayne found a lot of unused bald tyres in one corner.

Motivated by his curiosity, he asked an uncle, “Why were those tyres dumped?”

The uncle explained, “The bald tyres are not safe to be used. Hence, they must be changed regularly with new grooved tyres.”

(a) From scientific views, explain why the grooved tyres are safer to be used compared to the bald tyres (despite of the fact that both tyres are made of the same materials, have the same mass, and have the same volume of air).

(b)  While looking around the factory, Rayne was reminded of how the tyres of military tank are designed differently from the ones of racing cars. The tyres are bundled by sheets of metal.  Based on your knowledge about material, explain why metal is used.

CRITERIA OF ASSESSMENT :

1. Hit the right keywords

2. Phrase the answers correctly

SUBMISSION :

1. Send your answer through PRIVATE FACEBOOK MESSAGE to Science Hub. The link : Science Hub on Facebook

2. Email your answer in the form of MS Word / PDF file to devi@sciencehub.com.sg by November 25th!

A warm note from a cool parent who tells us to keep rocking…

This student has been taught by both Ms. Persis and then Mr. Bosco in Sec. 1.

 

 

Thank you parent. And yes, we will keep rocking! 🙂

A happy student who has enjoyed our Math Olympiad training in school programme

 

And she is asking for more! Wow!

 

 

Hi ZY, it’s so nice to hear from you though my lessons with your school has ended quite a while now. I hope you do your best and get into P5 Math Olympiad training. Perhaps I’ll see you again or another trainer will be there.
Ms. Phang

A million thanks on a day specially dedicated to teachers…

Teacher’s Day is here and we would like to thank our students for writing Thank You notes to us!

Hello Madam…

This madam is so glad to hear from you!

Thank you for writing in

A parent took the time to write to us recently:

We are glad to know that your child is enjoying and benefiting from our Math and Science classes.

Thank you for telling us.
