Happy Easter from the 1st Graders! Today in class, we talked about solids, liquids, and gas. We then made a liquid into a solid. And of course had to dye them afterwards 😉 We colored coffee filters, wrapped them around our eggs, and “painted” them with a vinegar and water mixture. We left them to dry while we were in PE, and unwrapped them after recess!
