On Thursday, I wasn't able to do a science experiment because my mentor was sick so he didn't go to work. But, we did a science experiment on Friday and the experiment was to do rock candy. There wasn't any groups but anyone who wanted to do it could and there would have to be a limited of four people in the kitchen. To do the experiment, you had to boil the water for a while and add food coloring, all the kids were able to put food coloring if they wanted to but not too close because the staff and I were scared that they would get burned. Then, you would have to add vanilla extract and mix it. Finally, the staff poured it in the kids cups and they put how much sugar they wanted to add. They didn't eat it because it wasn't hard so they have to wait till Monday to see how hard their candy is. I thought it was a great experiment and nice to know how you do it. It's crazy how anyone could make it because of how simple it is. Later on, the kids and I made a poster so we can hang it up inside the Boys and Girls Club. We also painted our hands and printed it on the paper. I thought it was fun and the kids and I really interacted.
