All Review

As I walked into the house, my arms were overloaded. Not only did I have my backpack, which weighed a ton, but I also had my Egyptian project and the poster that went with it. As soon as I got near the kitchen, I deposited my project  on the table and walked upstairs to my room.
The word deposited means - 

• to add something (dirt/salt) to a pile
• to set something down
• to put money in the bank
• to throw away

Crayons have been used by people for many years. The idea to combine wax with color goes back thousands of years. The Egyptians used beeswax combined with color to paint on stones. They then used heat to melt the wax so it would stay in place. This method was used by many people around the world in the 17th and 18th centuries, in fact, it is still used today. While this may not be the easiest way to complete an art project, it is still an interesting way to add color to an object.
Which is the best main idea for this passage?

• Crayons are cool
• Crayons have only been around for a few years.
• Though different from today, Crayons have been used by people for
  hundreds of years.
• Not all crayons are the same
