Today Poppy Class discussed about what good hygiene is. We conducted an experiment. We covered our hands with fake germs and then touched different surfaces in class. We were then able to see how these germs can be transported throughout the whole school very easily. We used a light to shine to see the germs clearly. We then quickly washed our hands and then watched if all the germs had disappeared or not.
