P4 Egg Science Experiment

10th Dec 2019

As part of our topic about Chocolate, P4 carried out an experiment to investigate the effects that different liquids have on our teeth.  The shell of a hard boiled egg is similar to the enamel on our teeth.  We put 4 eggs in water, vinegar, milk and coke.  We observed and recorded the changes that took place over a week period and were shocked at how much the egg shell in coke had changed!!  As a class we discussed the importance of brushing our teeth regularly and keeping our sugar intake to a minimum.
