Healthy Body

This week in our Happy, Healthy Me Unit we learned about germs! On Wednesday, we started an experiment. We took one freshly washed apple and put it in a jar, and then we passed around another apple and put it in a jar. Over the next week we will observe the apples to see if there are any changes. We think the apple that was passed around will get more brown than the washed apple. 

After our experiment, we talked about germs. What are they found? Where do they come from? What do they do? 


On Thursday, we watched a brainpop video on how to wash our hands. Then we did another experiment! First we squirted a big blob of lotion in our hands, then we sprinkled glitter (germs) all over our hands. We shook hands to show how fast germs can spread. Then we tried removing the glitter (germs) with paper towel...it didn't work very well! So, we went to the washroom and learned how to properly wash our hands to get rid of germs.
