My name is Emma. I am six years old and I am often asking myself questions about things that I see, such as why are the clouds different shapes and how do cars work? I am going to find out about these things and write about what I find in this blog.

CRYSTALS
We made some crystals. We had lots of fun making them. We had sugar and water. We mixed it together it the sugar DISSOLVED. It means that when we mixed the sugar in, the sugar has to disappear. It is still in the water, but it is liquidy. Instead of being grainy and hard, it is liquidy. A couple of weeks it was allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll crystals because the liquid had EVAPORATED and left behind the hard sugar crystals. We tried to get it out of the pot, but we could not get it out, so we used a knife and I ate the bits. It was sticky, crunchy and sweet. What's next? We looked at the crystals under the magnifying glass and they looked amaaaaaaziiiiing! They were JAGGEDY and BUMPY. The surfaces of the crystals were SHARP and FLAT. My favourite crystal in my crystal book is calle BLUE GREEN SMITHSONITE. It can be found in the United States, Australia, Greece, Italy, Mexico and Namibia.
