Today in Reading we read about an experiment using paint and crayons. So we brought it to life and conducted the experiment to learn that when you paint over wax crayons, you can still see the crayon, allowing it to look like their sea animals are swimming in water. 🐠

My very dear friend, also a Long Branch Alimuni, is now a principal in North Carolina and one of her teacher’s are trying to collect Valentine’s from each state! So of course we have to fulfill New Jersey! @GREG_Principal @msrich04 #TogetherWeCanLB
