We have been doing X-Rays and we made our own X-Rays of our hands. We used chalk, black paper and backing paper. Here is some information about X-Rays: X-Rays are a type of light, which you can’t actually see. X-Rays can travel through skin and muscle but not through bone. For an X-Ray to be taken you need a special machine that shines the X-Rays through your hand and onto a type of special paper. The X-Rays that hit the paper, turns the paper black but the X-Rays that hit the bones does not hit the paper and it stays white.

Here are examples of our work:-

Great report guys, now I understand how X-Rays are taken!
