HERSHEY CANDY PROJECT
HERSHEY CANDY PROJECT
What if……..
The research lab at Hershey Foods does a survey for a new candy bar.
Hershey Chocolate Company is designing a new candy bar. They need a name for the candy bar and a jingle.
What will the candy bar look like and what will the jingle sound like?
There will be a contest to see who creates the best song.
This is a 2-part activity:
