I haven’t posted in a while, so to make up for it, I made a new post about a science project called the insulated house. this project its based on the heat and temperature unit. This unit in class was about particles and energy transfer. There’s conduction, insulation, thermal energy, kinetic energy, etc. We as a class were given a task to do in class which was to build an insulated house. We had to build a house that was able to fit a Petri dish(8.5 cm diameter)with an ice cube into the house and insulate it enough so that the radiant energy from the heat lamp won’t get inside the house to melt the ice cube as easily. we will be timed to see how long the ice cube will last before melting, and whoever wins will get the grand prize. I have just completed the construction of my insulated house and have taken a picture of it.
Here’s the picture:
So, the house is complete. It took in total 210 minutes or 3 and a half hours. We did 1 and a half hours on the first day and 2 hours on the second day. Tomorrow, I will take it into class for the competition.
Bob Ross would be proud.

Good going Ian! Probably would have gone faster with a proper helper(Ha Ha) Bob Ross would probably have snow on it????
Looks great! I hope it works. You put a lot of work into it.
Looks good Ian I see you have used red and white felt for the insulation.
