Y5 - Emperor Penguins

Y5 had an exciting afternoon on Friday. We explored how Emperor Penguins have blubber which keeps them warm - the children experimented by putting an uncovered hand into ice and then put their hand into a bag which had been lined with butter (blubber). The children were mesmerised by the difference and now have a great understanding of one of the many survival skills a penguin uses!
