Disappearing Dog
We love using Discovery Dog, a teaching resource to support science. In each story there is a problem to be solved. Today Nora, Discovery Dog’s niece, disappeared and Discovery Dog wanted to choose a collar that would make Nora easier to find. We decided to carry out an investigation to help Discovery Dog decide the best colour to use. Mrs Berry hid lots of lollipop sticks in the grass and we had to try and find them. They were blue, purple, green, yellow, red and orange. Most people predicted that the yellow sticks would be easier to see. Some people looked for the sticks while others recorded how many of each were found. Our prediction was correct! The yellow sticks were easiest to find, so we think that Discovery Dog should get Nora a yellow collar!
