Mock Rock

This week in school we learned about mock rocks. They are not real rocks, so we call them mock rocks. Mock Rocks are clay with tiny dyed rocks inside them. We crushed them into powder, and then we put the dry clay in
a vile. We then poured water in the vile and waited until morning. In the morning, the water was green! We poured the water into a peetree dish. The next morning, there were crystals were the water used to be!!!  We did this because we are studying rocks and minerals.  It was very fun and I got to bring my crystals home.
