ACTIVITY #3 Germs, Germs Everywhere! NOW THAT WE KNOW ABOUT GERMS, LET’S TALK ABOUT HOW THEY SPREAD. BASIC CONCEPT This activity illustrates how the germs spread. Photographing the process would be a good way to document the learning. The photos could be used to create a poster that could be displayed near the sink as a future reference for the children. MATERIALS NEEDED ❑ 3-4 different colors of glitter* ❑ 3-4 small paper plates or plastic trays ❑ Several toys/materials from around the classroom (those which can be easily cleaned) ❑ Soap, water and paper towels *If you are unable to use glitter, you can try washable paint, flour that has been colored with powdered tempera paint, or salt mixed with food coloring.
GROUP SIZE This activity is best done in a small group, but can also be a part of a whole group experience.
