A class trip to the math museum “Mathematikum” (written by various students)
On 1st June 2023, our class went to the museum of mathematics in Gießen. We were there for about three hours. Our class practised experiments. (by Anastasia)
We went from Siegen to Gießen by train for one hour and one hour back. On the train we listened to music, ate, played and slept. (by Ala)
First we had to pack our bags into a box and then it started. There were so many stations. I will tell you about some of them: At one station you had to find out how many sweets (m and m’s) were on a poster. I learned how you can find that out. (by Stella)
In the “Mathematikum” there were some math quizzes and math games and you had to solve them. Some of them were fun. There was a big bubble and many mirrors. (by Abdu)
Erik found the blocks and we built a pyramid. Then we went to a metal ball and rolled it down a track. After that we went to a big bowl. In the bowl there were 1,000,000 little glass balls. 999,999 were white and one of them was black. (by Moritz)
Then we went to the cafeteria. I bought a Coca Cola and we spoke with the class. (by Eren)
I found the “Mathematikum” very nice and I won’t forget it. I think I will visit it again with my family. (by Julia)
