My name is Elena Papadopoulou and I am a primary school teacher in Komotini, Greece.
My students and I decided to revive the Eratosthenes Experiment and submit to this contest. The challenge was huge as my students are 6 years old and they are in the 1st Grade. They were so thrilled about what they achieved and they have become so interested in Science from then on!
I am proud of them as we measured the earth's perimeter with great accuracy!
This experiment proved that we can teach everything to everybody as long as they get involved and adjust it to their knowledge level!
Thank you for the great experience! We had a lot of fun during the procedure!!
