We've been studying crystals in science for a few weeks.
We discussed how they are formed and categorized.
We did a lot of experiments too (Mostly about Salt and Sugar)...
An gumdrop model of a salt crystal...
We looked at salt and sugar under our microscope -
Marigold was amazed to see the difference
The end result of our evaporite experiment...
we dissolved salt into water and let the water completely evaporate
If you look closely, you can see the cube shape of the salt crystals
Rock Candy Time!
The outcome wasn't as stellar as I had hoped for,
but you can see from Marigold's face that she couldn't be happier about it
Again, if you look closely, you can see the hexagonal prism shape of the sugar crystals.
