Primary 5 had great fun completing an investigation on their topic of Penguins. The investigation was to find out if a Penguin needs Blubber to survive in Antarctica temperatures.
Together they carried out an investigation to identify whether Penguin Blubber actually insulates a Penguin in cold climates. Each child got to place their hand into an ice cold bowl of water and then again into a glove insulated with Blubber (lard). The children compared the results of each and concluded that the Penguin's Blubber is definitely a much needed insulation in the cold climate of the Antarctica! Take a look through our photo gallery to see how we got on:
