A Tasteful Experiment

 

This week Year 4 have been investigating what happens when we eat. On Monday we did an experiment to find out if we are supertasters – people with more tastebuds who taste flavours more strongly. We all wanted to be supertasters but the downside is that supertasters are more fussy about what they eat – those sprouts taste really strong!

Then on Tuesday, we had an exciting live lesson with the BBC and other schools from all over the country. We learned lots of amazing things. Did you know that a blue whale’s tongue weighs as much as an elephant?
