Math Adventures with Snowflakes


 

The activities in this unit offer opportunities for multi-sensory learning across all   content areas while primarily focusing on math skills. In this unit, children will: investigate the history of the scientific study of snowflakes completed by Wilson Bentley, listen to a story, observe ice crystals, identify and draw six-sided shapes—hexagons, refine motor skills, identify lines of symmetry and symmetrical shapes, identify symmetrical objects, practice short term memory skills, and identify and complete patterns. 

Use a copy of Snowflake Bentley by Jacqueline Briggs Martin, a snowflake blank book, and foam snowflakes to extend the study and take learning off the page!
