Sorry – sensitive post WARNING.

Class 3 have been learning about foods, teeth and body parts for a while but we started on digestion last week and I thought a full practical would be a great way to see it all working.  How on earth to do this in a classroom??  Well, see below for some horrible photos and a full descrition of the process!

Crush up the cracker in the cup Teeth
