Ms. Kim's class at Rocky Ford Grand Valley is completing a study on water. As part of the study, children created walking rainbows. Children take a strip of paper towel and color one end with a bright, vibrant marker. They then placed that end into a cup of water and the other end in a dry cup. As the water traveled up the paper towel, it drew the ink with it creating a rainbow effect. Not only did it demonstrate the movement of water, but it also sparked children's curiosity and creativity.
