Today, we journeyed to the Fashion Department at Albright College in Reading for a textile printing workshop. Science, art, fashion, yay! We learned about heat transfer printing and sublimation, and printed Jane's artwork on a T-shirt and tote bag. We watched the fashion professor edit Jane's MLP drawing using PhotoShop, and got to look around her office and the fashion design building.
Science - sublimation - like dry ice, according to Jane

And, while we were waiting for her afternoon playdate, she practiced the threes times table. We found the multiplication high five idea at Creekside Learning. It seems to be working. I asked her 3x7, and she instantly said 21. Yay!
