In science we are working on "What is a liquid, solid, and gas? " A solid does not change its shape or size.  A liquid changes its shape but not size.  A gas changes its shape and takes up space.  We watched a piece of ice melt in a cup.  Then we used different materials to try to make a piece of ice melt faster than the 1 hour and 15 minutes it took naturally.
