Recently K4 has been learning about how to stay healthy. One of those ways being to wash our hands properly and why. Through this experiment K4 reviewed the steps we take to properly wash our hands. Afterwards using pepper, water and soap we were able to see the importance of always using spa. By adding soap to the pepper water, it quickly repels the pepper, just as soap helps repels real germs. Students could see right before their own eyes how quickly the “germs” were gone!

It was a fun activity that helps better visualize for students why all the steps we take to wash our hands are important.
