Thermo Projects


The project is to answer one of the following questions: 
1. Which travel mugs should you get to keep your coffee or tea the warmest on your journey to school? You may not use my calorimeters!
2. What should you keep your soda in to keep it the coldest at lunch time?
3. What enclosure keeps the pizza the warmest? Aluminum foil, cardboard box, paper bag, saran wrap?
4. Is a down jacket really warmer? 
5. Does the shiny side of aluminum foil matter in keeping your burrito warm?

6. Are mittens really warmer than gloves?



This was my favorite. A tad light on the science but it's the creativity I have been craving. 

Our results were the following:
