Today students received information and materials during Science for making "Borax Crystal Ornaments." These completed crystals will be due on Thursday, December 8th.
There is a link under "Important Documents" with an explanation of the directions that we went over in class. Here is another helpful link to see this experiment firsthand--https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlYL4_cgCTU.
Lastly, we discussed other materials that can crystallize, including salt, sugar, and ice. Here is a fun activity students may enjoy trying at home as well--http://snowflakes.barkleyus.com/.
We can't wait to see all of these creative crystals! Completed crystals should be returned to school in a plastic baggie on or before 12/8. Please remind your student to include his/her name on outside of the bag as well. Thanks so much!!!
