WCS preschoolers, scientifically speaking, get creative with colors!

Preschoolers at McGuffey PK-8 School recently explored mixing colors as part of a science experiment.

They followed a recipe of colors, water and a few other safe household supplies to create their own lava lamps.

Mrs. Gilligan, preschool teacher at McGuffey, pointed hands-on activities provide students with numerous benefits.

For example, students:

• Engage in learning from real experiences;
• Interact with their environment and each other;
• Use all of their senses to explore, create and learn;
• Engage multiple areas of the brain;
• Build fine motor skills.

“It was a big hit,” Mrs. Gilligan said.
