Woodpeckers - Science Investigation

9/2/2023

0 Comments

 
We have been learning how polar animals are adapted to their frozen habitats.   This week, we have investigated if fur and blubber really do keep animals warm.   First we placed our uncovered hands in iced water to see how cold it was. Then we put our hands inside a ‘fur’ (fabric) bag and placed it in the iced water.  Finally we put our hands inside ‘blubber’ (a bag of vegetable fat) and placed it in the iced water.  We found out the 'fur' and the 'blubber' stopped the cold reaching our hands and they kept us warm - just like a polar bear keeps warm!

Last week Kingfishers, Swans and Woodpeckers went to Wildwood to investigate polar animals and their adaptations for living in the cold.   We enjoyed being outside all day making our own wooden badges, exploring the amazing maze and finding out all about the animals at Wildwood.   We saw wild cats, Eurasian Eagle Owls, lynx, wolves, boars and our favourite animals were the Arctic Foxes!
