Why do we need to wash our hands properly?

Today in Science, we investigated the importance of washing our hands properly. We took part in an experiment, demonstrating how quickly germs can spread using glitter. We then learnt about what happens if we do not wash our hands properly. We learnt the correct way to wash our hands and put this to the test to see if we could get the glitter off using the correct technique. Ask your child some questions about how long you should wash your hands for or about the correct hand washing technique.


What have you done today to make you feel proud?
