When I teach students how to put markers away I teach them the order of the spectrum. Kindergarteners can do it! We sing a little song, red orange yellow green blue purple a few times and they line them all up in the boxes. I say, “Don’t forget the brown and black. SNAP THE CAPS!” And a box of eight markers is in pretty good shape for the next class.
Anyway, the paints were lined up in order on the counter and when I came upstairs after the buses left, I saw the sunlight coming through the jars of glitter paint we’d used earlier. I have no idea how we received a box of glitter paint but we did. The colors were brilliant and I got excited as I rushed to get my camera. Here’s what I could catch.
It’s a behind-the-scenes look at the rainbow factory. Love that you teach the children to put their markers away in spectrum order.
Beautiful light. 🙂
The beauty you see all around you in your daily life is a good lesson for all of us in how we should view the worlds in which we live 🙂
Well put!
A serendipitous moment. I love it!

Good catch – it is beautiful.
‘ I can see a rainbow… see a rainbow.. I can see a rainbow too’
Thank you for that.
Absolute beautiful. I hate markers without caps
Beautiful!!
We finally have sun here in Indiana today – probably the first time in 10 days! The cats have already been in the sunroom enjoying the rays! Everybody have a wonderful day! Smile!
I still sing that song. OK, no I don’t, but now I may have it in my head. Love the picture as always.
Love it! I was just teaching primary and secondary colors to Kindergarten. They catch on so quick! I also noticed the cupcake papers for paint. Gotta try that! I wish you were nearby so we could share ideas more easily. Think of you often!
Love that the colors were lined up in a rainbow! 🙂
