Year 6 - Working Scientifically

Date: 1st Feb 2024 @ 3:05pm

In Science this week we have planned and set up an investigation into mould growth on bread. We chose to wipe hands on different slices of bread with different cleaning products on the hands. We had to have a control slice of bread where nothing at all was put on it. This is so that we can compare all the slices of bread to it at the end of the investigation. The other 4 slices of bread were:

Dirty hands

Hands cleaned with soap and water

Hands cleaned with hand sanitiser

Hands cleaned with an alcohol wipe

We will observe any changes to the bread over a 2-week period. Come back to see the conclusion to our fair test...
