With this extreme heat this week we decided to do a little experiment.
We let each child predict what they thought would happen if we kept the crayons in the shade vs. If we placed them in the direct sun.
In the shade the crayons weren’t even getting soft. After placing them in the direct sun it didn’t take long for them to completely melt out of their wrapper. 🖍️ ☀️ ~ Mrs. Heather & Mrs. Susan pre-K

2nd grade’s experiment today! Is it hot enough outside to melt crayons? Yes! They were melted in less than 2 hours & by the end of the day, there wasn’t any crayon left in the paper.
