Instructions
Place students in teams, describe the challenge, and distribute materials.- Students design and build their container.
- Instruct students to put one ice cube in the container, and keep one outside of it, as the control.
- Wait 90 minutes and open the container. Compare the ice cubes. If they are the same size, the container didn’t help to keep the ice cube from melting.
- If time allows, students can redesign their containers and try again.
