A number line comparing temperatures in Celsius and Fahrenheit.

Learn about the two main temperature scales, Celsius and Fahrenheit, and how to convert temperature from one to another. View two conversion examples and a chart of typical temperatures, and use the conversion tool.

The Kelvin, Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales are discussed. Site lists and explains formulas for converting between the different scales.

Use this interactive tutorial to introduce students to the concepts of temperature and thermometers.

An interactive thermometer shows temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit and "translates" the temperature you choose into real life situations, like "Fun in the Snow," "Nice Sunny Day," or "Boiling Water."

Teach students the relationship between temperature and thermal energy. It also addresses the three temperature scales: Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin.

With this learning module, students will understand the difference between heat and temperature, convert temperatures among different temperature scales, and calculate specific heat.

This WebQuest takes students through the basics of chemistry. Explore the Kelvin, Celsius and Fahrenheit Scales, the periodic table, Nitrogen and gravity.

A resource for converting between five different temperature scales. Also provides the formulas and the temperature scale ranges.

Animated interactive teaches young researchers about scales and devices used to measure temperature.

Using thermometers, students will compare differences in the temperature of various materials and locations. They will record and chart the data that was collected and present the graphs to their classmates.

In this activity, students collect both Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature data for several water samples of varying temperatures. They use the data to find a conversion equation that will calculate the Fahrenheit temperature for any...

The difference between heat and temperature is explained, followed by a discussion of temperature and its relation to global climate change. Gallileo Galilee, Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, Anders Celsius, and Carl Linnaeus are mentioned in...

In this activity, students learn how to convert measures of temperature between the three different scales - Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin. The history and uses of each are very briefly explained as well.

In this activity, students will collect data for a range of temperatures in units of Fahrenheit and Celsius, and develop a conversion formula for changing from one unit to the other.
