Melting Project
In this project we want to show that not all matters of any kind are the same. Not all matters of any kind melt at the same time in the same time period. Every matter on earth has its own way of creating itself and forming itself into something different. We will be calculating the time it takes for each individual liquid we have to melt and if these matters make a difference. The melting objects will be different types of pops and other liquids. My group and I expect to see big differences in melting. We will be collecting the times it takes, afterwards we will use to T Test to calculate all the results. There will be an end difference.
This project would’ve been meant for middle school. But since we added the T test and are doing more and harder math this can easily be formed into a high school project.
The specific English standard my group and I are addressing is, Introduce a topic; organize complex ideas, concepts, and information so
that each new element builds on that which precedes it to create a unified
whole; include formatting (e.g., headings), graphics (e.g., figures, tables), and
multimedia when useful to aiding comprehension.
The specific Science standard we are trying to convey is, HS-PS1-1. Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of
electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms. [Clarification Statement: Examples of properties that could be predicted from patterns
could include reactivity of metals, types of bonds formed, numbers of bonds formed, and reactions with oxygen.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment is limited
to main group elements. Assessment does not include quantitative understanding of ionization energy beyond relative trends.]

Specific Resources
This science project will need about four to six people. My group has three people. Savanna Stephens, Gabby Johnson, and myself. The specific materials we will need to do and to complete this project are, juice, cups, timer, freezer, paper, pencil, calculator and a room to let the liquids freeze in all the same temperature. The materials we will need will be very easy to get. Mostly household materials. Usually the costs of juice are around $3 dollars. We will be comparing three different kinds of milk. Three different kinds of orange juice (no pulp). Also three different kinds of pop. Like Pepsi. These prices should range around $30. or under.
The only lack of resources my group and I will come in contact with is lack of time. Melting a solid object into a liquid form just going by room temperature could take awhile. It could take hours. So my group and I need to use our time very wisely. Safety is the top priority. This project does not consist of anything that is a hazard. But who knows what could happen from melting liquids
Mid-Project Evaluation
Teamwork- Savanna and I did all the work Gabby Johnson wasn't here most of the time.
Explaining- My team and I explained our project very well. I think we all learned that not all liquid matter melt at the same rate or in the same temperature.
Adjusting- Our team adjusted very well to the project. Every time someone asked us a question we explained in detail and I think that everyone liked our presentation overall.
Final Project Assignment
This Project went very well. There were actually a good amount of people who asked us about our board and they all seemed to be pretty interested.

With this Project, My group and I discovered that when milk freezes. It actually turns yellow and rises. Its weird. When red pop freezes it takes a few hours to melt. The melting points were all off by a few hours. It was cool how everything happened the way it did with the melting. Melting solids into liquids to change the matter is a very time consuming thing. This was a easy project.
