This week the students were given a challenge to create their own device that will keep an ice cube from melting. Students were asked to bring items from home that would serve as an excellent insulator for their ice cube. They have been building their prototype and then testing the capability of their insulator at home. I have heard of great success from the students! When they return to school, students make adjustments and then test again so they can see if they can make it better. The project is due on Wednesday March 17 for final testing. I can't wait to see which insulator keeps the ice cube from melting the longest!
