When you study "temperature" in science, how can you engage students to understand freezing and warming? At Lakeside, we visit the cafeteria and take a quick field trip into the walk-in freeze where the temperature is 10 below zero. These scientists made predictions on what will happen to water, milk, liquid glue, a banana, and other items in this cold. And what about rubbing alcohol -- we called it the stuff mom uses to clean things. Surprise!
We didn't stay long. Just long enough to scream for the ice cream all around us.
