Room 4 have been learning about sea creatures for our inquiry topic. We know that penguins have a special oil that keeps their feathers waterproof and dry. We did an experiment to see whether we could make our penguin pictures waterproof in a similar way. We used wax crayons to cover all of the penguin and then sprayed on water. It was exciting to see it roll straight off the penguin instead of soaking into the paper!
This is what it looked like when the water rolled off the penguins' feathers!
