EPHS Cast its' Web


On Friday, October 7, 2022, Mrs. Cynthia Gonzalez-Hdz', Mrs. Zandra Vasquez' and Mr. Ricardo Diaz' Life Skills classroom at EPHS participated in an experiment (Salt Glue Watercolor Experiment). 

The Students explored colors and “absorption” with 3 common house-hold supplies: salt, glue and watercolors.  

To celebrate the beginning of October, the students traced a spider web with glue and drizzled it with salt. 

This created a crystal-like effect. 

The students then proceeded to carefully color it with bright neon watercolors using plastic droppers. 

The students were able to observe how the watercolor was absorbed by the salt and glue mixture. 

At the end, the students saw how beautiful their artwork glowed under a black light!
