In this lesson, students will learn about thermal conductors and insulators. They will learn what materials are thermally conductive and how they are used to help us e.g. radiators. They will look at how the particles behave in thermally conductive materials and using a thermocolour sheet will carry out tests on various materials. They will also learn about thermal insulators and again will look at how they are used to help us e.g. flasks. They will plan and carry out an experiment testing which material is best to use to insulate hot water and, using the experiment proforma sheet, will record their results and analyse their findings.
