Kinder Students Investigate Matter

 
Kindergarten has been studying about matter and the effects of heat upon matter. The children were each given an ice cube and told to see who could melt it the fastest. The children put the ice cubes out in the sun remembering that heat was what caused ice to melt (going from a solid to a liquid). One of the children thought about it and rubbed the ice cube on the pole for the basketball goal because he knew that metal got hotter than cement in the sun. What an awesome connection! COE kindergartners are thinkers!!
