Glitter Germs?

This week, Year Two explored germs and how they spread. This was part of our Science topic ‘Human Survival’. We put glitter and petroleum jelly on our hands and then touched lots of objects in the classroom to see how quickly the germs could spread. There was glitter EVERYWHERE (Miss Hall was secretly happy).

Hedgehogs’ we’re so surprised at how fast the glitter spread but knew exactly the right thing to do to get the glitter (germs) off their hands. They explained we needed soap and warm water to wash our hands properly. It was a very exciting afternoon!
