Today we were scientists and carried out a water cleaning experiment!

First, we got a cup of clean water. Next, we went outside and made our water as filthy as possible. This was great fun!

Finally, we worked out that we needed to develop a filtering system with holes that would trap larger objects but let the water drip through. Well done Finlay for describing this.

We said that we couldn’t drink our water even if it looked clean because there might be bacteria in it that could harm us.

Well done p5 for discovering and learning!
