Well…it is safe to say that all types of alcohol have now had a massive impact on all of the cuts of liver. Each liver has started to rot and decompose. Veins have burst and some of the cuts have swelled in size and look puffy whilst other cuts have shrivelled and become blackened and bruised.
None of the livers are healthy anymore and the smell from all of them is disgusting!! So disgusting in fact that we had to vacate our classroom and conduct our experiment in the fresh air in the hope that it would help to disperse the smell.
This may come as a shock but the liver that has been the most badly damaged was the one that was submerged in the Alcopop – a Blue Wicked. The Blue Wicked liver has almost fully decomposed and had become sludge like. This surprised us as we thought that the alcohol wouldn’t have had such as big impact – especially because it looked so bright and colourful when packaged.
P7 took advantage of No Pens Wednesday and spent time researching their topic of light and dark – they carried out different experiments and were able to discuss their findings. P7 also enjoyed taking their learning outside and making their very own fraction wall.
Today we carried out the first of our observations from our liver and alcohol experiment. Each part of liver has now swelled and absorbed some the alcohol. All of the liver has changed colour and some parts now have broken and burst veins. It is safe to say that all of the livers are now badly damaged and that has just been after 24 hours. We were shocked as even the liver that was submerged in the alcopop has been damaged which shows that these are just as bad for you – even though the packaging makes them look like juice.
As part of our Health and Wellbeing we have been learning all about the way in which alcohol and substance misuse can damage our body. We have found this topic really interesting but very scary. Yesterday we began our experiment into the effects that alcohol can have on our liver and because it was something that was so good for us to be doing a Health and Wellbeing Officer from East Ayrshire Council came in and observed us. Ms Jarvis told us that we were one of the best behaved P7 she had come across d that we were hugely responsible throughout the afternoon.
SketchUp is a 3D modelingcomputer program for a wide range of drawing applications such as architectural, interior design, landscape architecture, civil and mechanical engineering, film and video game design! It is great fun to use and has helped to build confidence with regards to product design. We hope we can share some of our designs with you soon – maybe you would be able to help us figure out how to get a roof on our houses!
