Science - Observation over time

Year 5 have been looking at conducting their own Scientific Enquiries and have decided on using salt (solute) and water (solvent) to make a salt water solution. Here are our results over time. It was fascinating watching the changes and the formation of the sparkling salt crystals. A great enquiry for observing a reversible change happen before our eyes.
