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.
