TURKEY : Our field trips (December 2016)

We participated in a chess event held on December 24th in Middle East technical University. Some students were able to play chess with Turkish National Chess Player Nilüfer Çınar Çorlulu. After this event, we organized various chess activities in our shool. We did chess pieces and movements, one step and two step mat situations on math activities.


NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM TRIP:

We visited the MTA Natural History Museum with the students and the parents on December 23th 2016. In the museum:
After a journey into the deep space and the planets of the Solar System in the Ground Floor, while walking up to the First Floor you will see how the earth and life has changed  during 4.5 billion years from the formation of the earth,
The fossils of the Invertebrate Section display the transition from unicellular to multicellular life. 185 milion years old giant Ammonite Lytoceras from Köserelik, Ankara is one of these important invertebrate fossils and one of the masterpiece of the museum.
In the Vertebrate Section, fossils of fishes, amphibians, reptiles and birds are on display with various mammalian fossils. 280 million years old fossil of Mesosaurus brasiliensis, a fresh water reptile which was found in the South America, gives us important information about the positions of continents and oceans in the past.
The fossils of basic mammalian groups are exhibited in systematic order such as Carnivores, Proboscideans, Perrisodactylas, Artiodactylas and Primates.
On the First Floor, our visitors can also observe the specimens of the extinct gigantic hornless rhinoceros Baluchitherium, the largest land mammal known, which lived 25 million years ago. All these specimen were found from Turkey during the joint project between the  MTA Natural History Museum and the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle in Paris.
At the center of the First Floor, you can meet the moulages of the 150-155 million years old carnivorous dinosaur Allosaurus fragilis, 154 million years old herbivorous dinosaur Brachiosaurus and head moulage of the 67-65.5 million years old gigantic carnivorous dinosaur Tyrannosaurus rex.
Near the dinosaurs you can see the Elephant and Whale Section. In this section, 17-10 million years old Gomphotherium angustidens, 3500 years old Maraş Elephant (Elephas maximus asurus) from Kahramanmaraş, Turkey and the skeleton of a fin whale (Balaeoneptera physalus) from Yumurtalık, Adana which was found in 2002 can be observed.
