Rights and Responsibilities:
Do you think the crayons have the right to ask for changes in how they are used? Why?
If you were Duncan, what could you do to make the crayons happy again?
Different Perspectives:
Is it okay for each crayon to have different feelings and needs? Why do you think that?
Which crayon do you think had the most reasonable complaint?
