Miss Wagaman's science classes explored how heat transfers in a real life situation -- making s'mores. Students identified conduction (when heat transferred from the marshmallow to the skewer), convection (the liquid circulating in the sterno can), and radiation (the heat from the fire roasting the marshmallows). Everybody agreed that the best part of the lab was when they were able to eat their s'mores at the end!
