3SG We are scientists

Today we conducted an experiment to test the melting rates of chocolate.

We placed a chocolate button in different locations and timed how long it took to melt. We took the temperature at the same time.

We had some interesting findings, that really made us think and draw conclusions – why did the chocolate in the Bubble not melt at all, even though the temperature reading was very similar to outside – where the chocolate melted in 2 minutes? We had a discussion, and decided that there was a variable – the concrete on the playground was very warm, but the carpet in the bubble was not.

We have loved doing the experiment and next we will put our findings down on paper in a scientific report.
