• Melting is when something solid turns into a liquid.

• It happens when the solid gets hot.

• Ice melts and becomes water.

• Chocolate melts when it’s warm.

• The temperature when melting starts is called the melting point.

• Every solid has its own melting point.

• Melting is a change in how something looks, but it’s still the same thing.

• You can cool the liquid to turn it solid again.

• Heat gives energy to the solid so its particles move more.

• Melting can be fun to watch, like butter on hot toast!
