Step-by-step instructions are given for two hands-on activities. Young scientists cut out a paper spiral and hold it over a hot plate to demonstrate convection, and they place a small piece of wax on the end of a metal rod opposite the hot plate to demonstrate conduction. Three conclusion questions for each activity are included so that they can record their observations. This is a valuable visual for reinforcing these two concepts of heat transfer.
