Elsa's Frozen Hand

Today we were investigating how to turn water into a solid or a liquid. 

First we froze the water to turn it into a solid. 


Water, snowflakes, glitter and sprinkles were poured into a rubber glove. We froze the glove in the freezer. 

It looked like Elsa's frozen hand!!!! 


We turned the luquid into a solid by freezing it. 

We all felt the frozen hand! 
It was really really cold!!!!!


Then, we decided to turn the ice (a solid) back into water (a liquid). 

We placed the Frozen hand on the radiator so the ice would melt with the heat. 


After our investigation, we now know that by putting a liquid in cold conditions it will freeze and turn into a solid, and by adding heat it will melt the solid and turn it back into a liquid. 

We can't wait to do more "Frozen" investigations!
