heat

"When aspiring young scientists heat up one of their favorite meals or warm themselves by a campfire, they may wonder what invisible forces are at work. This . . . title will not only explain these forces but will also allow students to experience them! First . . . it explains key ideas of heat and energy, such as the three main ways heat travels. Then students are challenged to think like a scientist as they learn about the scientific method. Through this viewpoint, readers are then guided through 11 . . . experiments that range from a conductor contest to making ice cream in a bag at room temperature! Each activity features . . . illustrations, step-by-step instructions, and an explanation of important STEM concepts"--Provided by publisher.
