Germs are everywhere!

Grace's class did a fine job with their science fair this year.  She welcomed the parents to the class and was the first to introduce us to their class experiments.
(sorry my video wouldn't upload)

They told us all about GERMS, how they spread and how germs can make us all sick.

Grace drew the germs displayed here....

They divided the class into groups to determine the best way to kill the germs...
~hand washing with water only
~hand washing with soap and water
~hand sanitizer 
~nothing at all (dirty)

Grace was in the group of hand sanitizer.  Her petri-dish had one big yellow spot.  The group with the most spots...HAND SANITIZER (dirty) and dirty hands (dirtier).

Hypothesis:  The best way to kill germs is washing with soap and water!
(DUH!!!)

These first graders are very smart!  Good job Gracie!
