Mister Fahrenheit create the Fahrenheit scale in 1708 with Copernic. The freezing point of water is 32 dégrée Fahrenheit, the boiling point is 212 degree Fahrenheit and thé human body temperature is 99 dégrée Fahrenheit. Fahrenheit is a scientist and he create thermometre, he use mercury for measure liquid.
This is a blog created by Ms Luminati (science teacher), Ms Mathis (English teacher) and Ms Burguière (science teacher) for the students of lycée expérimental André Malraux (Biarritz, France) who are learning science in English. They want to show that science is fun, interesting and easy particularly when it is done in English! This year we hope to work again with some fine European partners. Let us all have fun together!

what's in a degree ?
The temperature can be measure in diferents scales, the degrees celsius, the degrees fahrenheit and the degrees kelvin . In degree celsius the boiling point of water is 100 degrees celsius and the freezing point of water is 0 degree celsius, in fahrenheit the freezing point of water is 32 degrees fahrenheit and the boiling point of water is 60 degrees fahrenheit. We can speak about the difference between the body temperatures, in degree celsius is 37 degrees celsius, and in fahrenheit is 96 degrees fahrenheit, but there is a way to translate the degrees fahrenheit in degrees celsius, the degree fahrenheit is equal to degrees celsius multiplie by 5 over 9 in parentheses and plus 32, and to get a degrees celsius in fahrenheit we need to do the next calcul ; fahrenheit minus 30 over 2 and we can get the temperature in degree celsius. We haven't talk about the last scale of temperature, the Kelvin, the kelvin is used by scientist, for have international unity of temperature, in kelvin the freezing point of water is 273 degrees kelvin.

What’s in a degrees?
First in degrees we have the temperature, the degree celsius, what we have in France, in Europe while in America and other places they have the Fahrenheit or the kelvins, to talk about mathematics, there are also relationships between the Fahrenheit, the kelvins and the Celsius.
We can also talk about degrees in mathematics or physics by calculating the value of an angle. The value of Fahrenheit and kelvin is significantly higher than the value of celsius, for example, the boiling point in Fahrenheit and 212 Fahrenheit while in Celsius the boiling point of the water is 100 degrees.

What 's in a degree?
There are three differents types of degrees in the world :
-Celsius
-Fahrenheit
-Kelvin
The boiling point of water is 100°C or 212°F. The freezing point of water is 0°C or 32°F. There are three different states of matters :solid, liquid and gas. In order to convert degrees Celsius in degrees Fahrenheit, we can use this formula:F=Cx2+30.In order to convert degrees Fahrenheit in degrees Celsius, we can use this formula: C=F-30/2.In America they use feet and inches because Americans refuses to change tto the metric system because it will be to long and expensive.

The hottest day of 2022
During this summer, there was many heats waves this resulted a drought. The drought causes big fire on a big part of Gironde's and the Landes's forrest. During this fire many animals died and many peoples loosed they houses. During the heat wave the temperature was very high, up to 40°C during the day and at the night the temperature decrease around 25°C, all of that is causing by the climate change. Old people are victims to is high temperature and they have many dificulties during is summer.

The Hottest Day of 2022
The Hottest Day of 2022
In this summer, we have recorded a lot of heat waves!
The heat wave is a rise of the temperatures and create many consequences, for example, the drought of river and they put the population in danger! they create the fire in the forest!

The hottest day of 2022!
This summer, we observed the rise of the temperature .We experienced many heat waves,with temperature that went up to 43°C.Those heat waves was cause by climate change and the green house effect .The drought create big forest fire and the sea level increase. Old people were victime of the weather. During those days we drank a lot of water to stay hydrated, put on sunscreen to protect us from the sun and ate ice cream to cool down.

the hottest day of 2022
It’s very sad, but now because of global warming and the vagaries of life, the haet is always increasing.
