Today, Crew Hamill completed their science experiment in which we investigated the impact of temperature on ice. We used the ice we had created in our last lesson and put them in three different places – on the radiator, on the table and in the freezer. We’d predicted that the ice that was left at a higher temperature would melt quicker and we were correct! We checked each block of ice at 30 minute intervals throughout this afternoon and measured how much of it had melted each time. There was almost double the amount of water in the cup that had been on the radiator as there was in the cup that was left at room temperature on the table. The cup in the freezer remained solid! This showed us that the temperature really does impact on the speed at which ice melts so the rising temperatures are a huge factor on climate change.
