    British Science Week

    15 March 2024 (by admin)

    The Explorers have had fun experimenting this week!

    The Explorers have been learning about the importance of oral health. This week we set up a tooth decay experiment using eggs as the shells are made of a similar substance to tooth enamel. We predicted what will happen to each egg in the different liquids and then waited a whole day to see if we were right!
    We found out that coke made the egg brown so we cleaned it using toothpaste and a toothbrush brush.  Vinegar dissolved the shell but milk and water left the shells the same!
