COLOR DAY

At the beginning of Color Day, we took our colored iced cubes out of the freezer and put them into clear plastic cups to observe them melting and mixing. In one cup we put blue and yellow cubes; another cup had red and yellow cubes; another cup had blue and red cubes; and another cup had blue, yellow, and red cubes. Stay tuned to find out what we discovered when our ice cubes melted!
WE WORE A RAINBOW OF COLORS...
Lucas and Robert wore yellow shirts.

Jake, Maeve, and Griffin wore "neutrals"--brown, white, and gray.
Charlie, Taylor, and Reese wore red.
Georgia, Sasha, and Josie wore pink.
Maeve, Miles, Ethan, Emmanuel, and Ian wore green.
Charlie, Oliver, Maren, Claire, Charlie, and Emily wore blue.

Maddie wore blue, too!
A COLORFUL SNACK...

We had a special snack on Color Day--sugar cookies with vanilla frosting. We were able to choose what color we wanted our frosting to be. Mrs. Spolter added food coloring to our frosting.


The milk for snack was colored!
