Report: Thinkers' Club Session 10

Date: 12th October, 2014
Session # 10
Attended by: 8 participants
Report written by: Fatima Salman

In this session, Manzar Imam Sahib told us about the play which we’ll be performing in November. Change of plan, we’ll only be performing one play ‘Who will bell the cat?’ in which everyone will get a chance to perform. We’ll be performing this in a huge auditorium with costumes, a background set, props, and music. A pianist is arranged to do the music, a costume making company has been contacted to make the costumes. Manzar Imam Sahib is re-writing the famous fable ‘Who will bell the cat?’ in Urdu. In the next session, he will read it out to us and give out the lines and script. It is all very exciting.

Then, we were asked to question those questions which had ever crossed our mind and we had been unable find the answer. Someone asked that When we heat a liquid, it stays a liquid, but when we heat (boil) an egg, how does it turns into a solid? This was an interesting question, and definitely something to think about; the variety of matter God created. Different questions were asked and answered such as Who invented the clock? A discussion about Bermuda Triangle arose in between and people shared their opinions about it.

After the session was over, most of the kids stayed back for a while and had a good time.
Overall, this session was interesting and the members enjoyed.

  1. Sounds like another great session at Thinkers' Club! Good luck performing the play! Just wondering, is there a theme for the next task? I understand if you're busy rehearsing for the play though. :)

    1. No there isn't exactly a theme to work on. We haven't started rehearsing for the play yet though, we'll start soon when the scripts will be handed out.

  2. I know the answer of this question that why an egg changes its state after being boiled or heated. It is because after being heated the enzyme present in the egg white 'protease' becomes denatured hence the optimum temperature off the egg has been exceeded which leads to the change of state of an egg. Exciting?
