Exciting Science Experiments for Kids by TOMAS

The TOMAS education group, a subsidiary of Riso Education Group, is thrilled to announce a free science experiment event designated for elementary school students. This event, titled "TOMAS Science Classroom: How to Use Experiment Tools," will be held via Zoom from January 19 to February 13, 2026. This program aims to teach children the correct usage of science experiment tools, a skill critical for their future academic success.

Learning the Right Way to Use Science Tools

The event focuses on teaching students how to utilize scientific tools correctly, which is a common topic in junior high entrance exams. Many students often forget the information merely memorized, especially when exam questions change their formats. Through visual learning and exciting experiments, children will not only understand how to use various tools but also grasp the purpose behind those steps. The goal is to inspire deeper thinking through questions such as, "Why is this procedure necessary?" and "What could be the issue with alternative methods?". This invitations extends to all students, including younger ones, so that everyone can benefit from this unique opportunity.

Some of the tools and questions that will be explored include:

• - Alcohol Lamp: What methods are incorrect for igniting it from above?
• - Matches: Which direction should they be stored?
• - Balance: Which plate should weights be placed on?

Note that specific experiments may change prior to the event.

Fostering Scientific Thinking through Fun Experiments

The TOMAS Science Classroom aims to ignite children's curiosity and critical thinking through problem-discovery-based learning. This unique approach not only prepares them for exams but also fosters the scientific thinking required for future challenges. With more than 14,000 participants thus far, the TOMAS Science Classroom is one of the most popular educational events.

Message from Instructor Yano Jin

In recent years, junior high entrance exams have prioritised understanding concepts over rote memorization. Students are now frequently asked to analyze the reasons behind scientific principles. This shift makes problem-discovery learning even more crucial. During the TOMAS Science Classroom, students will engage in various experiments, encouraging them to ask questions and develop a scientific perspective. Joining this program will be an excellent opportunity to nurture their curiosity!
