Put a few pieces of Candy Variety 2 with an intermediate melting point (Starburst, caramels, or butterscotch chips) into each “B” bag. Put a few pieces of Candy Variety 1 with a low melting point (gummy bears or gummy worms) into each “A” bag.Divide the remaining bags into three groups: “A,” “B,” and “C.”.For half of those bags, put 12 chocolate chips (or a small square of chocolate) in each.

You need to fill the Ziploc bags with candy before class. You can either use a cooler or create your own insulator using a cardboard box and bath towels. You will need a source of hot water for this activity and a way to keep the containers of hot water warm. Homeschool students can work alone, but will need to test all the different types of candy on their own. We suggest students work in pairs for this activity. You can keep your hot bottles hot (or your cold bottles cold) for a couple of hours if you put them in a cooler or in a cardboard box with bath towels as insulation. You just need to make sure there is a definite difference. You can use ice water and warm water or you can use very hot water and cool water. The difference in temperature between the two bottles has to be enough to feel easily with bare hands. Half of the bottles will be filled with cool or cold water and the other half will be filled with warm or hot water. Fill the Plastic BottlesĮach group of four students (or homeschool student) needs two plastic bottles. Each pair of students (or each homeschool student) needs two 10” squares. You can fill bottles an hour or two ahead of class if you have a cooler (or a cardboard box and a bath towel) to keep the water bottles hot. You will need access to hot water for this activity.

Homeschool students will need a partner for this activity.
