Exploring the sugar content in our favourite drinks.

Ms Kirby and her fourth class students conducted a science and mathematics exploration to compare and contrast the sugar content in some of our favourite drinks.

The sugar content found in drinks

They measured the sugars found in each of the drinks and then created graphs to represent and compare the results. They were very surprised when they learned that some of the drinks contained 'hidden sugars' and that even when they thought that they had made a healthy choice, they were really consuming a lot of sugar.
