For Science week we investigated how germs spread. We set up a ‘sneeze zone’ and we all had a piece of card and we drew a picture of ourselves on it and then placed it in the sneeze zone. We used a water spray to see how far the water travelled and to see how many of the pictures got wet. We then repeated this again but this time we put a hand in front of the water spray and finally we repeated it again but this time we put a tissue in front of the water spray. We found out that sneezes can spread far and wide and to minimise the spreading of germs a tissue should always be used.
Fantastic Science work Year 4. What a great way to look at the spread of germs!
