Freeze & Fry

Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents a series of thermometers each displaying a temperature in Fahrenheit. Students are tasked with converting these Fahrenheit temperatures into Celsius and marking the appropriate temperature on the thermometer scales provided. The worksheet offers a blend of typical and extreme temperatures to challenge students’ understanding of the conversion process. Each thermometer includes both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales, but the exercise focuses on having students calculate and fill in the Celsius equivalents.

The “Freeze & Fry” worksheet is designed to reinforce students’ skills in converting temperatures from Fahrenheit to Celsius. By calculating and then visually marking these temperatures on a thermometer, students can better grasp the numerical relationships between the two scales. This exercise also improves their familiarity with the formula used for conversion, enhancing their mathematical fluency. Ultimately, this worksheet aids in developing both theoretical and practical understanding of temperature measurement, preparing students for real-world applications of these skills.
