Science Week

This week it has been Science Week, so we have been doing lots of fun activities.

We did a brilliant project with Miss Haines

about blubber. Blubber is a special type of

fat: it is thicker than normal fat, and

Whales have blubber that can be bigger

than 30cm.

For the project we had to put our

hands in cold water. Then, we put our hands in

gloves, which were filled with butter.

When we put our hands back inthe bowl, they

weren't cold. This was because the butter was

acting like Blubber

salt and water

With Miss Miah we learnt about the Red Sea: it is so salty that you can float in it.

We did an experiment to prove this.We put loads of salt into cups to see if we could

get an egg to float.
