Shivering in the winter cold, participants at a STEM workshop in Manesar, Haryana made observations, asked questions, all while satisfying their innate desire to understand how things work. This workshop in particular made me realise how we are blessed to be layered in the warmth of life. The students all enthused to learn n grow, asked questions and went on to set up a reaction with yeast to observe the evolution of gas, as it was cold they warmed the set up in their palms to see the evolution of gas that fills the bottle.

They went on to use the Foldscope to screen microflora, they tried to understand what magnification means, the interplay of light, different sources of light and more. We understood the importance of making a note of our observations, as they appear in the field, even in the little light that was there in class.
