Temperature and its Measurement
Touch alone cannot tell exactly how hot or cold something is, so NCERT Curiosity for Class 6, Chapter 7, introduces the thermometer. The chapter explains temperature and its common units, shows how the liquid in a laboratory thermometer rises with heat, and teaches correct use of the clinical thermometer for measuring body temperature. Activities compare warm, cold, and lukewarm water, record readings in tables, and stress handling glass thermometers with care while noting normal human body temperature.
