Primary 5 had great fun completing their topic of Penguins with a Blubber Investigation. 

Together they carried out an investigation to identify whether Penguin Blubber actually insulates a Penguin in cold climates.  Each child got to wear a glove which was not insulated in an ice cold bowl of water and then again in a glove insulated with Blubber (lard).  The children compared the results of each glove and concluded that the Penguin's Blubber is definitely a much needed insulation in the cold climate of the Antarctica!
