Grow your own crystals!

After today's lessons, I thought you might want to try and grow your own Image result for crystals word 


at home (or bring in your materials and I will help you at school!)

Here are some links to get you started:

Salt crystals- 3 different ways.

Copper sulphate/sulfate crystals.
