Curious Crunching... How does our digestive system work?

Class 4G Curious Minds Biscuit Investigation

As part of our science lesson, we embarked on a tasty experiment to understand what happens to biscuits after we munch on them.

Chew, Crunch, and Swallow… The experiment began with the children examining how chewing a biscuit breaks it down into smaller pieces. We learned that this first step is crucial for the digestive process, as it makes the food easier to swallow and digest. Next, we thought about what happens to the biscuit once it reaches the stomach.

 

Over the next few weeks, we will continue investigating how the digestive system works and why it is important to keep our bodies healthy.
