by Debbie Everett
Today we will make new crayons from old and broken crayons. To do this we will:
listen to an informational text describing how crayons are made.
make a solar oven.
describe the steps we take to make our own crayons.
collaborate and communicate effectively with our peers to complete this engineering design challenge.
