We studied Phase (Physical) Changes in Science by melting solid pieces of chocolate into liquid then remolding into a new solid shape, watching solid ice cubes change to a liquid and then evaporate into a gas, learned how popcorn pops (a tiny drop of water inside the kernel expands when heated and then it explodes!), microwaved baggies of ice cubes to see what would happen and we froze water in nitrile gloves to convert a liquid to a solid (then the kids peeled the gloves off and floated the frozen hand shapes in their baths - hmmm, strange I know, but they had fun!)
