This week we are growing alum crystals. A friend of the family asked us to take this on as a homeschooling science project. She needs them for decorating purposes. Our goal is to grow them the size of golf balls.
I have asked the our homeschooling friends at the DC Learning Partners to join us. Eight families have committed to starting their crystals this week.
Here is a list of what we needed:
Alum (found in the spice section of your grocery store)
Water
String
Oil
Small Jars
Pencils
Measuring spoons and cups
This is a video of Nasiru guiding us through the project.
We post the outcome of the crystals and more pictures soon.

He Did It Again!
Nasiru had the opportunity to perform on Saturday, September 20th with Baba M's youth drumming group again. He has come a long way with is drumming skills. Several Mamas and I were there to support our boys at this community event. I was so proud. Nasiru is on the left in the video.
