Year 8 Girls of Al-Siddiq International Junior High School Create Pinhole Cameras in Science Practice

On Thursday, 27 November 2025, the Year 8 girls of Al-Siddiq International Junior High School carried out an engaging and educational Science practical activity. Taking place in the Science laboratory at 08.00 WIB, the students created pinhole cameras using cardboard as part of their lesson on the properties of light. Under the guidance of their Science teacher, Mr Muhammad Fathul Ihsan, M.Res., the students learned the concept that light travels in a straight line. Through constructing a simple pinhole camera, they observed how light entering through a small hole can produce an image on the inner surface of the box. The pinhole cameras helped the students understand basic optical principles directly—showing how light can form an image when directed through a narrow opening. This activity not only strengthened their conceptual understanding but also made the learning experience more enjoyable and meaningful. It is hoped that this practical session will foster curiosity and creativity among the students, while also providing them with a hands-on and engaging Science learning experience.By Umair Shoddiq, S.I.Kom

When Kindergarten Children Learn Arabic Conversations About Natural Elements

On Friday, 28 November 2025, the Kindergarten B pupils of Al Siddiq took part in an Arabic lesson on the theme of natural elements. The activity was held in the classroom in a relaxed and warm atmosphere. The children appeared curious because the material presented was different from their usual lessons. They were learning not only to memorise vocabulary, but also to understand its meaning through examples close to their daily lives. The teacher began the lesson by introducing four elements: water, earth, fire, and air. Each word was presented together with visual or real-life examples to help the children understand more easily. For instance, the element of water was explained using examples such as the sea and the river. The earth element was introduced through mountains and the forest area in the school yard. Fire was explained through the sun and lava, while air was illustrated through the wind and tornadoes. These explanations enabled the children to grasp the meaning of each element more quickly. The purpose of learning natural elements in Arabic was to help the children gain meaningful and relevant new vocabulary. By connecting the words to real objects, the learning process became more engaging and memorable. In addition, simple Arabic conversations helped build their confidence in speaking. The children were not only learning the vocabulary, but also how to use it. This learning approach strengthened their self-confidence as they tried to explain something in another language. After understanding the meanings and examples, the teacher began teaching how to describe these elements in Arabic. The teacher recited simple sentences, and the children repeated them together. This moment was always full of enthusiasm as the children eagerly competed to pronounce the words correctly. Once all the pupils were considered confident, the teacher invited them to come to the front of the class. One by one, the children mentioned the natural elements in Arabic and explained them in simple sentences. Some children appeared nervous, but with the teacher’s support, they began to speak bravely. This activity concluded the lesson in a joyful way. The children went home with a new experience—realising that learning a language does not have to be difficult, as long as it is taught in a way that connects with their world.By Inka Amalia, S. Pd

Click, Shape, and Build a House! Learning ICT Made Fun!

On Thursday, 6 November 2025, the TK B pupils of Al Siddiq International took part in an engaging ICT learning activity held in the school’s computer lab. This session focused on using the Paint application, a simple digital drawing programme designed to introduce young children to technology while nurturing their creativity. In this lesson, the children were guided to create a picture of a house using the shape features available in Paint. This activity not only trained basic computer skills but also introduced geometric concepts such as squares, triangles, and circles. The children learned to recognise and combine these shapes to create a simple house illustration, complete with a roof, door, and windows. Before starting their drawings, the children were guided to turn on the computer independently by pressing the power button on the CPU. Once the computer was on, they were taught how to open Paint by clicking the search icon and typing “Paint” in the search bar. After the application opened, the teacher gave easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions. The children appeared enthusiastic as they followed the teacher’s guidance, from selecting shapes and changing colours to arranging the shapes into a house. This process not only strengthened their fine motor skills through the use of the mouse but also built confidence in using digital devices. Teachers also encouraged the children to be creative by adding extra elements such as the sun or trees if they wished. The main aim of this activity was to introduce technology positively from an early age and to develop the children’s visual creativity through digital media. By using the shape features in Paint, the children learned to think systematically—how to combine individual parts into a meaningful whole. In addition, they practised following instructions, completing tasks, and feeling proud of their own creations. This activity demonstrates that with the right approach, technology can become a fun and educational learning tool, even for young children.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

How Exciting—Eggs Can Sink, Float in the Middle, and Rise to the Surface!

On Monday and Tuesday, 3–4 November 2025, the TK B pupils of Al Siddiq International took part in an exciting activity in their science class: an experiment investigating how eggs can sink, float in the middle, or rise to the surface. This activity was specially designed to introduce simple science concepts through hands-on experiences that are enjoyable and easy for young children to understand. The experiment was guided directly by the class teachers. The activity began with an introduction, during which the teacher greeted the children and explained that they would be conducting a fun experiment using water, salt, and eggs. The children looked enthusiastic and curious, as this was a brand-new experience for them. Step by step, the teacher demonstrated the experiment process. Three glasses were prepared, each filled with water and a different amount of salt: one with a small amount of salt, one with a moderate amount, and another with a large amount. After that, an egg was placed into each glass one by one. The results amazed the children. The egg in the glass with a small amount of salt sank to the bottom. The egg in the glass with a moderate amount of salt floated in the middle of the water, while the egg in the glass with a high amount of salt rose to the surface. This became an exciting moment that sparked the children’s curiosity about how water and salt can affect objects placed in it. The aim of this experiment was to introduce basic scientific concepts such as density and buoyancy in a concrete and enjoyable way. Through this activity, the children learned that objects may sink or float depending on the density of the liquid surrounding them. They also practised observing, comparing, and drawing simple conclusions from the results. This activity not only enriched the children’s scientific knowledge but also helped develop critical thinking, teamwork, and communication skills. Through active learning methods like this, the children do not simply learn theories—they directly experience how science works in the real world, in ways appropriate for their age and stage of development.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd
