Super Sniffers in Year 4

This week in Science year 4’s had a smelly time! They designed their own experiment to measure the time in which different oils diffused. They made sure to collect numerical data and we will enter this into google sheets to create graphs of their data.

“I had to go outside for some fresh air because all the smells were filling my nose” - Hollie

“I predicted I would be able to smell the orange quicker because it is in cleaning products” - Leanne

As a result of this lesson the children were able to discuss the notion of fair testing and develop their reciprocity skills to design a successful experiment.
