The children are learning about heat in Science this month and today they were investigating how heat travels through solid objects in a process called conduction. With blobs of butter on the end of three spoons, one metal, one wooden and one plastic, we added boiling water to the bowl and made predictions about which butter would melt first.
They made sure it was a fair test by ensuring the butter blobs and spoons were the same size.
Can you guess which blob of butter melted first? Which one was next?
Check out the photos of their investigation below.
