Science Week

11th Nov 2020

We discussed plastic in a Science lesson. We learned that there is a lot of plastic in our oceans and it creates a big problem for fish. Some fish eat the plastic and some get tied up in it. We discussed how we didn't want our planet to fill up with plastic. We learned a new word Biodegrade. Plastic doesn't biodegrade if it drops to the ground it stays there for years and years and can end up in our oceans. We learned how we all need to try to reduce how much plastic we use. The less we use, the less we have to clean up. We learned how lots of plastic things are meant to be re-used over and over, if we have finished using a plastic toy, perhaps we can pass it on to someone else. When plastic objects have been reused, they can be recycled so they can be turned into new things.
