An engaging learning tool in your classroom and a must-have in your Science Cave!
The Galileo Thermometer can be used to demonstrate temperature’s affect on density. The precisely weighted glass balls rise and fall within the liquid-filled tubes to indicate the temperature with remarkable accuracy, making it an educational and engaging piece. The combination of wood, glass, and precision craftsmanship ensures that you’re investing in a high-quality piece that will retain its beauty and functionality for years to come.
The thermometer ingeniously measures temperature bulbs that float in liquid as it expands. The temperature is read from the engraved metal discs that hang off each bulb. Warm the thermometer prior to class and allow the spheres to drop as the water cools to room temperature. Can be used as a tool to illustrate, demonstrate, or generate questions and discourse.
