Mould investigation

Date: 20th Oct 2022 @ 5:41pm

Year 6TC have been learning about microorganisms. We wanted to find out the best conditions for mould growth. We placed our hands on the bread and stored them in zip lock bags in various places with different conditions to find out the best conditions for mould growth. After 4 weeks, we found the results of our investigation. We safely observed the bread and wrote up a report, comparing the results with our predictions. It turns out that mould grows best in dark, damp and humid conditions. Don't worry! The bread has now been binned and won't be making its way into anyone's sandwich any time soon!
