Today, P4 mummified their own tomato.
They scooped out the insides and dried it off before sanitising and covering it in salt and bicarbonate of soda.
Before we covered it in salt we measured the mass of the tomato and will do this again after 14 days to see what happens to the mass. Some children thought the tomato would be lighter, some thought it would be heavier. A couple thought the mass would remain the same.
Visit this page in 14 days to see if our tomatoes have been preserved or not.
