Crayons
We suggest each pair of students use one red crayon and one blue crayon, but other colors can also work. |

We suggest students work in pairs.
In this lesson, we discuss both the Celsius scale and Fahrenheit scale for measuring temperature. We mainly focus on Fahrenheit because students in the United States are more familiar with this temperature scale. We have Celsius worksheets available for the activity if you would like to use that temperature scale instead.
