Over the last few weeks we have continued to investigate heat. We have conducted experiments using the sun as our heat source. We placed different objects in the sun and observed the effects of the heat on each one. We discovered which colour (black, red or yellow) is a good heat absorber. We learnt about which materials are good heat absorbers and which ones are not. We have used thermometers and measuring cups and made predictions and reflected on our results.

This term in 3SB Science we are learning all about heat. We have discovered the 4 main heat sources: electrical, friction, chemical and the sun. We used our bodies to create friction to melt chocolate. We first made predictions about how long it would take to melt the chocolate with certain body parts. After, we reflected on the best way to create friction using our bodies.
