Baking Crayons

* Remove paper from crayons
* Preheat oven to 250.
* Arrange crayons in silicone baking mold. (I bought mine from a dollar store.)
* Bake for 10-15 minutes until melted.
* Remove & Let harden.
* Reveal the beauty!
Sometimes I "draw" into the melted wax before it hardens with a chopstick or plastic fork to make designs or swirls in the wax.

Year 2 - Here I Come

I am the art teacher at Sutton Elementary School in Muncie, Indiana. I am going into my second year of teaching at Sutton and am very excited. I have created this blog to share my experiences, lessons, and insights on the world of teaching children.
