We had to make a homemade thermometer we had directions that told us how when we were done we had to answer questions but I don't get this one.

How can you use the concepts of matter and the kinetic energy of particles to explain the way your model works

I'm not good in science please help A.S.A.P.

Sorta I just need to know how matter an kinetic energy of particles can explain the way my model works
My model is a homemade thermometer that is made out of a plastic bottle that you put a straw half way in it and then use clay at the top of the bottle to seal of any air pockets then you put your thermometer in a bowl of cold water and the water in the straw should go down and then put it in a bowl of hot water and then the water should go up.
