Ms. Ruiz’s class read The Color Monster by Anna Llenas and talked about how our feelings can be all sorts of colors. Then they became scientists and explored how colors can change—just like our emotions—through a hands-on experiment. We loved seeing science and feelings come together. 🎨🔎🌈 #STEM #LearningThroughPlay #WICOR #SEL #TheWashingtonWay
