TRANSAT Jacques Vabre 2019, CM2 to the collision!

Status

The 18 octobre 2019, the pupils of the CM2 class had the chance to meet two skippers of the Transat Jacques Vabre. A very interesting meeting especially since the students had worked on the documents of the educational kit provided by the sponsors Bureau Vallée and Initiatives Mécénat Chirurgie Cardiaque. Au programme : geography with the study of the various landmarks of the terrestrial globe (parallels, meridians, …) allowing them to read GPS coordinates during the race, mathematics with the comparison of rainfall curves in Havre and Salvador de Bahia, videos about life aboard a racing boat, etc. A cette occasion, the children were able to ask a lot of relevant questions. Nothing like going to the village of the race!
