I really enjoyed reading this article. I thought it was a very simple way to explain light and colors and it gives great examples that can be used in the classroom. The text was not overly complicated, you did not need to know a lot about light and waves to understand what was being explained. I felt as if the author wrote this so that you could also use their words to explain the topic to upper or lower elementary school students. The only problem I had with the article was that it referenced figures that were on a different page making it hard to read and then understand what figure they were talking about because I had to leave the section I was reading to find the figure. Other than that I thought it was a great article!
