WALT create a enquiry or test by asking scientific questions.

WILF:

• Generate relevant scientific questions.
• Set up a simple enquiry with support.
• Make predictions and suggest equipment.
• Give clear instructions to perform a test.

Today in science we have been thinking about tooth decay and what might cause it. We then thought about how scientists ask scientific questions and set up enquiries to investigate them. We then set up our own experiment involving eggs and 4 different liquids. Using the notes you took during the lesson you are going to complete the first sheet below or as much of it as you can. 

Then each day we will show you pictures of the experiment and you can complete the recording sheet.

Key information for our investigation:

Question: Do different liquids have an impact on an egg?

Link: Do different liquids cause tooth decay?

Fair test because we are only changing the type of liquid everything else is the same.

Liquids we are using: pepsi, blackcurrant squash, orange juice and water.

The same size egg has gone into each one.
