Today we made some scientific discoveries. 

We investigated soluble and insoluble substances.  We found that some substances(solute) dissolve in water(solvent)  and some substances don’t!

We also found that some substances dissolve better when the water is heated.  We had to be very carefully using the spirit burner and when working with the different chemical substances.

Finally, we have set up an experiment to grow crystals and recover a dissolved substance.  Each house is growing a different colour…..we are wondering which crystals will be the biggest??
