Writing With Crystals

Here are some more of our Crystal science experiments.

This is me and Frankie writing down definitions of some the of science words we learned in this study.


Malachy and Madison playing with play-doh while we do homework.

To write with crystals we used table salt and sugar and mixed them both separately with water. We wrote on black and white paper with each and after 10 minutes we looked at them through a magnifying glass. I wrote the word happy and Frank wrote Frank. I did sugar and Frank did salt.

The sugar was glossy and the salt was crystally (there's millions of mom in these pictures, hehe).


A close up of Frank's salt crystals.

Crystal Jungle

These are pictures of us making our Crystal Jungle.


I'm putting together the lion made out of special paper that will absorbs liquid very fast.


Frankie putting the jungle together.


Me adding the liquid molecules.








The crystals are starting to grow.


Still growing.


The crystals are done growing. They are very soft crystals you touch them and they fall off.

Our Finished Crystals

We mixed some white powder called Sodium Borate with hot water. This was a fun project!

Proverbs 10:19

Yesterday when I was doing my words of wisdom (cursive) which I always have to write a Bible verse, I wrote a funny one and it said...

"Dont talk so much. You keep putting your foot in your mouth. be sensible and turn off the flow!"

Hello!

I updated my profile so check it out! We are still working on the crystals right now we made a crystal jungle we are just waiting for it to finish growing. I will post about it later. Oh and we finished the pipe cleaner crystals and they COOL!!!! I'll post pictures of those later too.

I want a meat ball. I really want a meat ball, YUM! Mommy can you make me a meat ball today?
I'm silly.

Learning About Crystals

Frank's pipe cleaner

Emily's pipe cleaner

Today in school we started learning about Crystals. But first we have to learn about Atoms and Molecules. We took a journey through an atomic sized world to imagine what atoms would look like if we could see them.

Atoms are so small that you can't cut them or divide them. In fact the word Atom comes from a Greek word that means exactly that.

Molecules are a bunch of atoms grouped together.

Then we had to learn about three forms of matter, Gases, Liquids, and Solids.

Gases are atoms that are moving incredibly fast.

Liquids are atoms that move slower than gases but are moving all the time.

Solids are atoms that like to stay in one position but they still move, sort of like vibrate.

After that we mixed up water and sugar to see what would happen. What happened was when the sugar (a solid) and water (a liquid) got together the sugar dissolved into the water.

We also learned that sugar dissolves quicker in hot water than cold water because the atoms move faster in hot water and slow down in cold water.

After all of that we started a project to make our own Crystals. We made a heart and a letter F out of pipe cleaners. Then we tied them around a pencil with string and put them in a hot jar of water with some solution that came in our Crystal making kit. Then we covered it with toilet paper because we didn't have any paper towels. Now we just wait until tomorrow to see what will happen.

Our Grandpa Bill called while we were in the middle of this and he asked what we were doing and I (Emily) said we were making Crystals and he said, "You're making little Mommies?" Hahahahahaha! Because our Mom's name is Crystal!

It was fun fun fun funny fun fun!!!

Last week we learned about electricity and we might post about that later.

Love,
Emily and Frank (and Mommy too!)

My Secret Garden 2

Hello it's been awhile since I've last posted. Since the last time I posted until now I have been busy doing so much. The biggest thing that has happened to me is I had my third radiation treatment. I had to have it because I still have some cancer left in me. When I first heard the doctor say that I still have cancer I felt scared. I was scared because I didn't want another treatment because I was scared of the catheter. It hurts really bad when the put it in. But I didn't have to have it this time. I got up to pee over 30 times though in 2 days! I had to drink a lot to get the radiation out of me so I could go home.

I'm not happy that I still have cancer because I don't want cancer, I want it to go away. But it didn't so I'm just going to have to wait some more. I'm not angry with God or anything, I still love God and trust Him with all of my heart.

Last Thursday my Aunt Katie took me to My Secret Garden again with my sister, my cousin, and my mom. She took me two years ago and I had so much fun and I was excited to go again. I had lots of fun! I got my hair done, and my make-up, we got to dress up in pretty dresses, and we had a tea party. I didn't like the tea though it was sprite or 7-up and I only like water, milk, diet coke, or chocolate milk.

Here are some pictures....THANK YOU AUNT KATIE you are the best, I love you.

Me and my Aunt Katie.

If you notice that yellow thing around her neck that is her collar. Just so you're not alarmed and scared or something. I bought that with my own baby-sitting money. It was 3.49. I love my Sarah very much.

Answers to Jami and Abbi's Questions

"Are you going to be in ballet this fall? Are you still singing?"

I am not singing anymore except for at home, in the shower haha, in the car, when I listen to my iPod, up in my room, in Frankie's room (but he says there is no singing aloud in his room, haha)and with Mommy. But I was going try out for Outloud (a singing group of kids at my church) but I was too young but now that I’m old enough they will not be having tryouts for it. I feel very upset about that. But I mite be doing ballet this fall my mom is trying to get me in a good ballet class called Dixon Dance it only takes 9 kids. If I can’t get in I will go back to the rec center.

That’s how much I know for now thanks for asking.

By the way I got a new Chihuahua (that's hard to spell).

Uh Oh!
