The Magic of Making Ice Cream

This past week, Mr. Noon's honors chemistry students taught Mrs. Van Horn's kindergarten class how they could utilize some simple chemistry knowledge to make ice cream. 

Andrew Blair by Andrew Blair in Academics
Students experience the science and magic of making ice cream.

By utilizing salt, ice, and a little movement, the chemistry students demonstrated that we can cause an endothermic reaction that would draw out heat from the cream, thereby cooling it down below the freezing point to create frozen ice cream...with sprinkles!

The smiles on students' faces and the pleasure they gained from making and enjoying the sweet treats were priceless.
