"Our class is learning about Mitzvahs (or good deeds) and began our lesson about taking care of people who are sick or older. Color A Smile became the perfect tie-in and helped my students have instant gratification by learning about something and then immediately doing something about it. My students were really enjoying discussing who these pictures could go to and hearing about how Mr. Harris came up with the program.
We hope that many people are brought a little sunshine from our pictures. ~ Tracy, K-3 Teacher, Congregation Kehilah Shalom
