Tulips

Tulips did a hand-on experience to see How the Polar animals keep themselves Warm. To begin with they dipped their hand in the icy cold water and counted to 5 and almost shouted that it was Cold. Then they put their hands in the bag of shortening and touched the cold water and felt that didn't feel so cold. This helped them to understand that the fat in the animals body helps them to keep warm.
