Hands-On Learning in the Science Lab!

Class 9 Students Explore the Magic of Measurement

As part of our commitment to practical science education, students of Class 9 had an engaging hands-on activity in the Science Lab, where they learned to measure the diameter of small objects using a Screw Gauge (Micrometer).

Today’s Activity:

•  Measuring the diameter of a wire and other small cylindrical objects

•  Understanding the importance of precision instruments in scientific research

• Recording data, analyzing results, and enhancing critical thinking skills

Why It Matters:
Practical experiences like this not only bring textbooks to life but also ignite curiosity, build confidence, and prepare our students for STEM careers. These sessions are especially impactful in rural areas like Lower Chitral, where opportunities for advanced science education are limited.

Part of Our Mission:
This initiative is aligned with UN SDG 4: Quality Education, ensuring access to modern, interactive, and inclusive learning environments for all.

Special thanks to our supporters and GlobalGiving donors for helping us equip our labs and inspire the next generation of scientists.

Education is not just about learning facts — it's about training the mind to think!
