We have been learning all about materials and their uses in Science this term.
We have thought a lot about how suitable certain materials are for the job at hand. We then learned about how the same materials can be used for different things by changing the shape of the material. We changed the shape of old crayons that were not being used anymore. We sorted the crayons into colours, peeled the paper away and bashed, banged, crushed and crumbled them with hammers. Then we sprinkled them into Lego shaped moulds and heated them in the microwave. This changed the shape into Lego Crayons!We think they look great and we have re-used the old wax crayons for a new purpose!
