science fair

In Te Ngahere we have been doing projects for science fair. Ben and I chose to be buddies for science fair and chose to find out what is the best insulation for hot water in a bottle and ice in an ice cream container. So far we have finished our plan and are now wrapping up the bottles and ice cream containers in the materials. The materials Ben and I have chose are cardboard, paper, tinfoil, polystyrene and packing blanket. I have enjoyed learning about insulation and how it works which I still don’t exactly understand. I think next time we should only do the test on the ice cream containers because you can’t wrap the water bottles in polystyrene.
