Liquid to a Solid

On Friday, we continued our study of solids, liquids, and gases. We explored how a liquid can change into a solid. One way to change a state of matter is to freeze it. We took two liquids; milk and vanilla, along with a little sugar and froze those items together. Students placed their solution in a bag of ice and they shook the solution until it was frozen. When we opened the bag we found our solution had changed to ice cream!


I can't tell which the students enjoyed more making the ice cream or eating it! :)

I just love teaching states of matter. There is so much to learn about! It looks like the kids had a blast with the ice cream!
