This activity would be a good cross-curricular focus for developing Maths and Science skills as it covers a range of success criteria meeting both curriculum skills:
* I know what thermometers are used for
* I know the unit of measurement for temperature is Celsius
* I understand what is meant by ‘room temperature’
* I understand what is meant by ‘boiling temperature’
* I can explain why temperatures might vary within a room
* I can read the scales of thermometers to identify temperature
It involves placing 4 containers of (boiling water in different parts of a classroom, for children to predict what will happen to each of them, considering possible factors in the room. This helps children to understand room temperature and how it can vary.
