Test Method:

Our method for making the crystals is:

1. Place 1 tsp of kosher salt in the first cup

2. Place 1 tsp of citric acid in the second cup

3. Place 1 tsp of epsom in the third cup

4. Add 50 ml of water to each cup

5. Mix with a popcicle stick until it disolves

6. Now, pour citric acid in the funnel with the paper filter, "Repeat with the epsom salt and kosher salt."

7. Make sure each solution is in its own cup.

8. Pour each solution in its own evaporation dish

9. Place the dishes on a tray

10. Now wait for about 5 day until it forms crystals. 

Now, our method for observing the crystals is:

1. Take the crystals and gently set it on top of the black paper.

2. Then, we use the magnifying glasses to observe the crystals closely.

3. Now, we record observations of the crystals in our journal.

4. Lastly, we use the observations to figure out which crystals are what.
