The Celsius temperature scale is arranged by the boiling and freezing properties of water. The point at which water starts to freeze and ice starts to melt was labeled 0 degrees, and the point at which water boils was labeled 100 degrees.

You don't need to do anything, ice will melt normally if the temperature is higher than 0oC

Add salt. Salt lowers the freezing point of water, which is why they use it to de-ice roads.

Ice melts at 0 C. Water BOILS at 100 C. The developer of the scale (Celsius) chose the freezing point of water to be 0 C and the boiling point of water to be 100 C arbitrarily.

What happens to the temperature of ice when it melts?

Two things could have happened for the ice to melt. The temperature could have gone above 0 degrees. Or a pressure change could have lower the freezing point so that the ice will melt at a temperature where it was frozen.
