Surprise  I was surprised when we where examining the crystals after we pet them in the water and it looked like salt an the unknown the way they dissolved looked the same at first I thought it was epsom salt but then it turned out to be salt. Summary I learned that different types of crystals if one looks like the other from a daily view don't just expect it to be that because to find the answer you have to run more tests like what we did. Backward The only thing I knew about this topic is that we did some other crystal experiments the week before but besides that I never really did any thing like it.Now I learned that when you dissolve the crystals after a while you really know what is  the unknown crystal is. Inward I feel good about my work because we where able to finish everything that you assigned to us and also we where able to figure out the unknown crystal. Outward The only people that may have done work like me (that I know of) where the peop

Surprise My surprise this week was when today we were crushing the crystals and I originally thought that the unknown crystal was Epsom salt but I found almost enough information to say for sure it's sugar.  summary This week I learned that different crystals look very different and the sound they make are very different.I learned that even if they look the same they are very different shapes and sounds when you look at them closely. Backward I had never tried to see any of these crystals side by side before.But now I know that even if some might look the same from a distance if you look closer they are very different crystals Inward This week I think I did good to ok because even if I completed all my papers I could have written better responses. Outward I did work like the people in my group because we were all experimenting the same thing so we had the same results. Forward One thing I would like to improve on is to give better answers.( More advanced,mo

surprise This week while we were doing the experiment on the temperature of water where the M&M's where in I thought that the room temperate water would dissolve the fastest but instead the M&M in the hot water dissolved the fastest.I was surprised because we were keeping on doing experiments with room temperature water so I thought it would dissolve the fastest. summary This week I learned that M&M's can really surprise you on how they dissolve in water (also different types of water),how they dissolve in different temperatures in water,and what they look like when they dissolve with two or more M&M's in a cup of water . backward I had never tried to put M&M's in water,but now I know that when you put them in water they dissolve. inward This week I think I did good because I had all my papers done and had all my data collected. outward I worked like other people because we were all  the same table so we had the same results.

Surprise Today during our M & M experiment I thought that only the color would dissolve in the water but instead it dissolved not just the color but also the sugar off it. Summary In this project I learned that M & M lose their color and the M & M's sugar dissolves and spreads around the plate. Backward Before this experiment I never new that a M & M could lose it's color or it's sugar be dissolved. Inward This week I think that I did what the expectations asked me to do: make a hypothesis ,write my data and  I took notes. Outward I worked like other people and we had the same data because we were in a group viewing one M & M so we had the same data. Forward One thing I would like to improve on is that I can take more detailed notes.
