# How will the Gingerbread Man change?

Class 1 have enjoyed reading the story of The Gingerbread Man. We felt sorry for The Gingerbread Man who got gobbled up by the sly fox. So much so that we've explored building bridges for him over the river and also made boats. We also wondered what would happen if the Gingerbread Man had tried to swim in the river. It got us thinking what would have happened to the Gingerbread Man if he was in other liquids.

Class 1 have been brilliant scientists this afternoon - asking questions and observing what happened. We put a GIngerbread Man in oil, one in milk, one in water and one in vinegar. We then observed what happened and how they changed.

We found that the Gingerbread Man changed the least in the oil and most in the milk. The smell of vinegar was really strong!
