Degrees Celsius
Temperature is a measure of heat. Temperature tells us how hot or cold something is. Thermometers are used to measure temperature. We usually measure temperature in degrees Celsius (˚C) but some parts of the world use degrees Fahrenheit (˚F).
The Celsius scale is based on the freezing point of water being 0 degrees and the boiling point being 100 degrees.

Most thermometers have small tubes and a bulb of liquid at the bottom. The hotter the temperature, the higher the liquid from the bulb rises in the tube. There are markings along the side of the glass tube that shows the temperature.
