We looked at germs in our first week. It is so important to know why we cannot put our fingers or items in our mouths and why we have to sneeze into our arms.
We looked at dirt on hands under the digital microscope. ( Mrs Arbuckle’s nails were disgusting even though she had washed her hands!)
Next we used body glitter to pretend that we sneezed on our hands. When we touched things, we could see the “germs” sparkle.
Then we used the “ snot “ bottle. We pretended to sneeze and see how far a sneeze travelled. We even “sneezed” three times in one spot and made a “ booger puddle”. It was disgusting!
Finally, we used the airzooka, to see how far a cough would travel. It really made the paper move. We tried it on our hair too. It flew right up!
We now know why it is important to wash our hands and stay safe.
