It’s a colorful world from celestial blue to tawny mountains to soothing greens. Children love to recreate the world in colors through art. Crayons have been a favorite medium for growing fingers for over a hundred years—but it took someone with an eye for the environment to think about crayons as a resource that should be recycled. This issue takes one man’s idea—to gather slightly used crayons used by children in restaurants—and recycle them to countries where such resources are scarce. Using creative thinking, his family and friends and his own kitchen, Bryan Ware from Danville, California, is a recycling hero! Read and be inspired by this simple and colorful story!
In this issue students will:
- Read expository text about a recycling hero
- Unscramble colorful spelling words
- Use the newspaper to locate stories about people who care
