Found some thermochromic paper at the bottom of a drawer, not used in ages, and decided to use it to show thermal conduction instead of the vaseline and pins practical. :))

@KayBeeCee1 @MissHalley_mfl Your comment is so flippant and unhelpful. There is always something to praise when working with children. If you receive negative after negative interaction with teachers and other school staff you won’t be receptive to any phone call from school.

[Jessie MytumSmithson @ScienceJessie]

This is my amazing school friend! Congratulations 👏 🙌👏🙌
