We were studying mixtures and solutions when we "noticed" there was iron in cereal. We couldn't believe the iron in cereal had the same physical properties of the magnetic metal variety of iron, so we crushed and dissolved some Total cereal to see if we could pull out any magnetic metal iron with our magnets. It was gross looking, but it worked! We found iron filings in the cereal and learned about the necessity for iron in our diets. Next we tried out some of our "magic" skills by exploring iron filings in sand And Wooly Willy toys. Iron- it's good for the body and the mind.

On picture 10, I'm not sure what we're all staring at. All I know, is that our picture looks HILARIOUS!! I really hated this lab, though!
