The First Grade Helpful Hedgehogs became scientists and animal specialists when they created crystal hedgehogs during science! Students learned that crystals are a solid made up of small regular 3-D shapes with very ordered chemical bonds. Crystal shapes vary, but can be grouped into seven systems: cubic, tetragonal, hexagonal, rhombohedral, orthorhombic, monoclinic, and triclinic. Students discovered that the spines of a hedgehog are similar to growing a crystal. How interesting!
