Let it Snow! – Ms Gourlay's Class
 

Let it Snow!

| Posted in Learning, Uncategorized

As scientists, the children have been;
  • observing objects and events in familiar contexts
  • asking simple questions about familiar objects and events

The children have been looking at pictures of snowflakes and they noticed that there are different types of snowflakes. They built many  kinds of snowflakes using geometrical shapes.

They also wondered about how snowflakes are made.  They learned about the life cycle of snow and about the water states of matter (gas, liquid, solid).


Water evaporates and goes up in the air.

Water vapor freezes high in the sky.

Crystals form and grow.

Snowflakes get heavy and fall to the ground.
