Fishing for Ice


The students today went fishing for ice! We discussed how people put ice on sidewalks and roads to help the ice melt. For the experiment, we used ice cubes, water, yarn, and salt. I showed the preschoolers how the yarn won’t stick to ice alone, but when salt is sprinkled on the ice, the yarn sticks, because the salt melts the ice making the yarn stick! Here are pictures of the students fishing for ice! Enjoy! If you would like to try the experiment at home, here is the link to the directions: http://www.sciencekiddo.com/salt-melts-ice-experiment/
