Cool It!
Adjust the melting time of ice without varying the temperature! Learners experiment with different materials to decide how the materials affect the rate an ice cube melts. They then connect their findings to the conductivity of each...
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students will work in small groups, observing an ice cube and recording a description, the feel of the ice, and how it looks when put in another container. Students observe changes in the ice over 15 minute intervals, then freeze the...

Pressure Melting of Ice: While-U-Wait
Young scholars demonstrates one of the few cases in which geologic solids visibly deform at room conditions. They suspend a weight on a thin wire over an ice cube to observe its effects over time.
Curated OER
Understanding the Ice
Students explore the concept of sea ice. In this sea ice lesson, students interview arctic hunters to regarding the sea ice safety and attributes.
Curated OER
Homemade Ice Cream
Students investigate nutrition by creating ice cream in class. In this cooking lesson, students define the ingredients in ice cream and discuss how they form together to create a delicious treat. Students utilize salt, ice, milk and...
Curated OER
Ice Eggs
Students melt colored ice cubes which are created from a funnel, balloons, water, and food coloring. In this ice lesson plan, students put food coloring into water in a balloon, freeze it, and see how the food coloring ended up making...

Molar Heat of Fusion for Water
How can you describe heat of fusion in a way the class understands and relates the importance of this concept to present day issues? In this third lesson of the series, learners conduct an experiment, demonstrating the flow of heat...
PBS
Insulation Station
It's all about the material. Learners experiment with different substances as they try to keep an ice cube from melting. They draw conclusions by answering a set of questions about the types and amount of material that had the best result.
Curated OER
Introduction to Density
Seventh graders discover the definition of density through a demonstration using ethanol and ice cubes and a class discussion using a SMART Board to illustrate formulas and calculations. Students finish the lesson by practicing...
Curated OER
Sugar Cube Castles
Students build a castle or igloo. In this art lesson, students mix icing sugar with water and food colouring to make a paste preparing a firm base and then use the paste to stick the sugar cubes together.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students explore water and ice. In this 3 states of matter instructional activity, students work with a partner to observe, illustrate, and describe the characteristics of an ice cube in a cup. The ice cube is observed again in 15...
Curated OER
We All Scream for Ice Cream
Young scholars investigate the freezing point depression of water while making ice cream. In this colligative properties lesson plan, students make ice cream using ice, salt and water to freeze milk and sugar. They measure the...
Curated OER
Sea Ice
Students observe the freezing times and temperatures of water with varying levels of salinity. They determine how icebergs form, how they act, and what they may be made of. They discover that salinity level affects the time it takes...
Curated OER
To Be Salty Sea Ice Or Not
Students explore what type of solutions freeze. They design their own experiments to compare how fresh water and salt water freezes. In addition, they write their observations in a journal and complete analysis questions.
World Wildlife Fund
Arctic Shapes
In a two-part worksheet, young geometers examine 3-D shapes and describe their attributes in a table. They will be able to draw the shape and name the number of vertices, faces, and edges. In the second part, individuals explore nets of...
Science Friday
Sublime Sublimation
Dry ice isn't dehydrated water, and young scientists learn why in this fascinating presentation. After watching a video, they complete three different activities using dry ice. Upon completion, they discuss the scientific principle.
Curated OER
Ice Breakers
Middle schoolers understand the effects of global warming on icecaps. They investigate the worldwide consequences that may result.
Curated OER
The Day After Tomorrow: How is the Density of Water Related to Climate Change and Global Warming?
Science learners simulate what happens when ice breaks up and floats on water and how increased pressure on ice causes it to melt faster. They view a clip from the movie, The Day After Tomorrow, and relate their lab activities to what...
Curated OER
What Changes Occur When Ice Melts?
Learners explore the physical process of melting. They observe melting ice and answer questions related to energy transfer during phase changes.
Curated OER
Physical Properties of Ice
Students explore the different properties of ice. They make predictions and experment with ice. Students discover that ice melts faster under pressure. Students create a flipbook what what happened after each experiment. This lesson...
Curated OER
Will The Ice Melt and Overflow?
Students observe what happens when ice in a glass of water starts to melt. In this ice lesson plan, students see that the ice does not make the water overflow, it simply occupies the space it did in frozen form.
Curated OER
The Big Freeze
In this lab activity worksheet, students record the time it takes for an ice cube to melt in three different situations. After collecting data they design a container that will keep an ice cube in a solid state for as long as possible.
