Seperating Mixtures Procedure

1. By looking at the cup, identify the two toothpicks and remove them.
2. By using the magnet, run it up and down the sides of the cup to remove all of the magnetic iron pieces.
3. Put the filter paper in the funnel, and the funnel in the beaker. Then put the water in the funnel, over the filter paper, and remove the funnel after the water is filtered.
4. Plug in the hot plate, and put the beaker on the hot plate. Wait for all of the water to evaporate, and then plug in the hot plate. In the beaker, all that's left should be salt.
5. In the cup, there should be a clear glass rock. Remove it, and all that's left in the cup should be sand and pebbles.

        The quote: “Education is the key to unlock the golden door of freedom” means that if you get a good education you can do almost anything. If you don't go to or don't finish school, it can really impact your future. In order to get a good well-paying job, you have to have a college or at least a high school degree. When you get older and want to go to college, you have to do well in high school and even middle school before they decide to grant your application. That's why it is important to do well in school.
