Team Building Stem Challenges
Mrs. Klinger's second-grade class used the extreme heat for a fun science experiment by placing crayons in two different environments: direct sunlight and inside a parked vehicle. Students observed how temperature affected the melting process, comparing results to learn about the impact of heat in real-world situations.
The RISE Classroom took advantage of the summer sun to create this fun, sun-melted crayon science experiment. What a great idea!
Don't forget! Tomorrow, Wednesday August 28th, is a 1:00 dismissal day!
