This cute video demonstrates a giant, working thermometer made from Legos. Run time 02:04.
Here is some more technical information about the design of the thermometer: The reading range of this "giant" thermometer was intentionally limited from -1...5 to 60oC to facilitate the design of this construction. However, the actual reading range of the digital NXT Temperature Sensor is much wider (from -20 to 120oC or from -4 to 248oF). Reading resolution is one decimal point (e.g. 24.4 degrees). The new Temperature Sensor has a long metal tip (about 64mm). The total sensor tip length, including the plastic "nose", is about 77mm. The difference with the rest common sensors (such as lignt, US, sound etc.) is that cabling is fixed, meaning that there is no connector socket at the back of the sensor. Cable length is about 51cm.

This amateur video uses an Einstein bobble head to describe how to measure temperature. Three beakers full of colored water and thermometers are used to measure temperature of room, ice water, and heated water. The video is made inside a science lab ...and appears to be a good introduction to lab equipment and measurement(Running Time 1:52).
