Back to Flocculation
So we set up 3 jars and mixed sand and water in the first and soil and water in the other 2. Then we mixed a small amount of Alum into the one dirt jar. The most amazing thing was how fast the water cleaned out.
This picture was after only about 8 minutes.
And 12 hours later in the morning. (Ignore the sand bottle... we ended up putting some Alum in there too.)
We are going to have to try this! I love the "homeschooling" things you do! : )
