Sid the Science Kid: My Ice Pops
Running Time: 26 min 57 sec Sid wakes up and discovers that the ice pop he left on his table melted overnight! This sticky situation leads him to ask, ''Why do things have to melt?'' By investigating at school, Sid learns about reversible changes. If liquids don't stay in a really cold place, they melt slowly over time. He also discovers that a liquid can freeze into a solid and then melt right back into a liquid.

Discovery Science Alliance: Melting
Running Time: 4 min 13 sec When Uncle Julius' ice pop melts quickly in the sun, he calls the Discovery Science Alliance to investigate. After researching the factors that affect melting, students come to conclusions about the materials and temperature required to slow the melting process. Discovery Education has curated images, videos, and lesson plans for Properties and States of Matter. You will need a Discovery Education username and password to access these resources.

Changing States of Matter Run Time: 4 min 38 sec What happens when you boil water? In this movie, you'll explore how matter can change. Matter is anything that takes up space and it is made up of tiny particles. Matter can come in different states like solids, liquids, and gases. Different types of energy, including heat, can change matter. Matter can change states through freezing, melting, evaporation, and condensation. Why does ice cream melt on a sunny day? Watch the movie to find out! |
