Rock Candy

We did a few science experiments to end the school year.  One of them was making rock candy.  We walked down to the KC Hall to do this because we needed heat.  I reminded the students that sometimes experiments don’t always work and they shouldn’t be disappointed if theirs didn’t turn and others did.  I am really proud of the students as some did turn out and some didn’t, all the students were glad to participate though.  The experiment was sent home with the students so maybe you can try it with your child this summer.
