: This was a very important SPHE lesson. The teacher explained both sides by using a bottle of water and a bottle of fizzy orange. She went outside with the pupils and shook both bottles then she opened the bottles, of course the fizzy one went all over the place but the water just remained in the bottle. She them asked them to look inside themselves and decide if they were fizzy kids or water kids. The class complied two lists, one the characteristics of a fizzy kid and the other, of a water kid. The pupils then made their own posters with the information.
