Students from 1st and 2nd Class of Primary School Students from 1st and 2nd Class of Primary School talk about the combination of science and fairytales. Then they make drawings so as to represent on another way what they understood from these stories.

These activities are based on representation of gravitational waves with constructions. The 5th and 6th Class of Primary Schools deal with gravitational waves.

At the end of all events students are going to present the whole activities in a common classroom, so as to deal with these issues on a creative way, combining different forms of Art.
