Should create an additional cup wrapped in multiple layers of different materials; could be challenged to select materials that, when combined, would offer the maximum possible insulation against heat loss; should analyse how the combination of materials affected the heat retention compared to the individual materials; refine their designs based on the data and their observations; could choose an extension activity relating to conductivity from the Resource: Stretch and challenge: Properties and changes.
