Lots of ice

Not only is it cold outside this week, it is cold in Room 17.
We have been looking at freeing as part of our science inquiry on Change.
Ice blocks
We dissolved powdered juice in water and made it into ice blocks.

 We found out that the made up juice froze but the powder didn't.... and that the ice blocks tasted great.
Icebergs
We froze some water. We marked the water level on the container to see what happens to water when it freezes.

We found out that water gets bigger (expands) when it freezes!
We put the ice in water, it floated - just like an iceberg. Most of the ice was below the water level  - just like an iceberg!

The ice felt very cold and hard.
