Chester A. Moore 2nd Grade Students Create The Silver Lining

Our CAM babies have optimism learning about Iver Anderson who invented lead-free solder. Anderson challenges students to think about the “silver lining”, the thought, the “ah ha” moment when different pieces can be brought together to solve a problem that nobody thought was possible. Often after a rainstorm, the clouds part, and the sun comes out. When the sun shines on the back of the cloud, it is referred to as the silver lining. The sun comes out, the rainbow appears and gives the clouds a Silver Lining
