Taste the rainbow!

Rainbows are such a fun and beautiful thing to teach! We learned about the Lord's promise that he gave us with a rainbow...how many colors are in the rainbow...and how rainbows are made. Although I missed Friday, the kiddos had all the fun lessons still taught! Take a look! And a huge "Thank You" to Mrs. Trina for leading on Friday! I am not sure what I would do without her!

Thursday:

Catching a rainbow. This was a fun science experiment that took the 3 primary colors and showed the kiddos how when they mix they make the colors of the rainbow!

who knew that milk and food coloring could be so interesting??

Now comes the magic part...dish soap! A little dish soap causes the colors to mix!

What a pretty rainbow!

Then they got to draw what they saw!

Gumby is having the time of his life!

Painting with Puffy paint is always fun! If you ever want to do this at home it is an equal mixture of paint, shaving cream, and glue!

Look at this lucky charm!

I caught "Me lucky Charm!"

Hand painted leprechauns of course!

We had white carnations, food coloring, water, and best of all PREDICTIONS!
What will happen to these flowers?

We LOVE science in Mrs. Laura's room! Our prediction was that the flowers would change to the color of the water...

Friday:

Thank you to this special visitor playing the bagpipes! Mrs. Laura was sad she missed this treat!

Such great fine motor skills...painting on glue with a thin paint brush! We can make our very own pots of rainbows!

At the end of the rainbow we found our very own special pots of gold!

Time to taste the rainbow...with those infamous Skittles!
But first we must work on our math skills...counting using 1:1...sorting...and graphing! Did you know that candy could teach us so many wonderful things??

Great job smart friends! And I just realized there are no blue skittles...stop the madness...something needs to be done about that!!

Revisiting our flowers from yesterday! Were we right?

Wow! Just look a red one and yellow one! Such beautiful magic!

Time to play!
