Our science study in Term 2 was called Fabrics and Fibres. In our unit we found out about all the different properties of fabrics. We had a guest speaker called Dil Bellworthy come talk to us about making clothes out of merino. Dil owns a company called Glowing Sky and he told us lots of interesting things about the properties of merino wool. For instance did you know that you can wear merino wool for two or three days and it won't get stinky and need a wash. We did some experiments with fabrics too. One of them was finding the best fabric to clean up a spill from a drink bottle. We had great fun even if there was a bit of cleaning up to do afterwards. We also had to research and find out the best fabric to make a T Shirt, a raincoat, or a pair of P. J's out of. We had to discuss our reasoning with others. We thought this was a fun study to do.
