This morning, our Year 4 pupils learned all about the digestive system. We explored each stage of digestion, starting with chewing a banana in our “fake stomachs”! We then used vinegar and bicarbonate of soda to create an acid-like reaction, just like in the stomach. Next, we used tights to represent the intestines, allowing the nutrients to spread into our bloodstream and leaving us with just the ‘poo’ at the end. As you can see, we had lots of fun and got very messy along the way!
