Cool to Carry

Cool to Carry

In this activity students will design and build a solution to the problem of cold food getting warm on the way home from the grocery store. Using critical thinking, students design a container to keep water cool. Students then test their designs by taking temperatures at three intervals.

Cool to Carry is part of the STEM2D Student Activity Series. The content and layout were developed by the Smithsonian Science Education Center as part of Johnson & Johnson’s WiSTEM²D initiative (Women in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Manufacturing, and Design), using a template provided by FHI 360 and JA Worldwide. This series includes a suite of interactive and fun, hands-on activities for girls (and boys), ages 5–18, globally.
