Crystal Project

Today students received information and materials during Science for making "Borax Christmas Crystal Ornaments."  These completed crystals will be due by Wednesday, December 6th.  
There is a link under "Important Documents" with an explanation of the directions that we went over in class.  You can also find it by clicking HERE.

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 12/6.  Please remind your student to include his/her name on outside of the bag as well.  Thanks so much!!!
