Jazzy Jays have had a rather strange start to their afternoon. We are learning about the digestive system so we made some poo!
We used a ziplock back to represent the stomach and added some digestive biscuits, a banana and some orange juice to it. We then churned it up to make a big, horrible liquidy mess. We then passed this mess through to a pair of tights to represent the small intestine. As we couldn't really represent the nutrients being taken out, we moved on to the large intestine. Here, we squeezed all of the excess liquid out of the tights. We were squeezing for quite a long time! Finally we cut a hole out of the tights and squeezed out all of the waste from a hole in the end of the tights (you can imagine what this was meant to represent...!).
Why don't you see if we can tell you all of the scientific vocabulary we learnt?
Fab work, Jazzy Jays!
