This week in our science lab, we learned all about properties of matter. We became knowledgeable about particle size, solubility, magnetism, density, and buoyancy. Our task was to separate a mixture of Sand, Gravel, Cork, Iron Filings, Aluminum, paper clips and Salt. Using what we know about the unique characteristics of the different substances, the students designed and carried an experiment. The goal was the give Mrs. Daniel every item back in its original state and container including the salt.
