Students investigate the concept of a snowflake and how they are formed in nature. They conduct research in order to find images as models for an art project. Students create a snowflake with Crayola Markers and scissors to cut the shape.

Students discover how snowflakes in nature are really formed, and recreate this process with paper and glue. This art lesson gets some scientific learning in as well.

Here is a wonderful lesson which has youngsters interview family and local elders about the seasonal history of their local area. They focus on climate change by asking questions about rainfall, temperature, the length of seasons, and...

Students study the design of snowflakes.  In this snow lesson, students discover the different shapes of a snowflake, and their similarities.  Students study snowflakes outside, then create their own with popsicle sticks...

Students catch snowflakes. In this science lesson, students use black construction paper to catch snow that is falling and then write about the experience. A game, a song, a craft, and a recipe are all included with the lesson.

Make Mary Poppins proud. Young computer scientists use block-based coding to create snowflake animations with a Mary Poppins theme. They learn how to apply sequences, actions, and loops in computer science.

Learners create their own crystal snowflake. In this snowflake lesson, students discuss how snow forms and the individuality of snowflakes. They make their own snowflake (crystals) using pipe cleaners, string, and borax.

Students read books and draw pictures about what a scientist does. In this scientist lesson plan, students brainstorm together of all the things a scientist does.

Charlie Brown may not feel the Christmas spirit this year, but your elementary students can use the season to practice important cross-curricular skills! A set of worksheets and activities based on A Charlie Brown Christmas guide...

Students explore winter, spring, summer, and fall. In this science and technology lesson plan, students use "Kid Pix" to draw pictures that represent the four seasons.

Students demonstrate the steps of evaporation, cloud formation, and precipitation within the water cycle. They make and demonstrate how to use a hygrometer to record daily humidity and describe how rain, snow, and sleet form.

The Alaskan wilderness contains every imaginable element of the water cycle: it has flowing streams, cool spring rain, and frozen glaciers. Pupils use a series of worksheets to identify and define evaporation, condensation, and...

Third graders learn the effects of temperature on the states of water. Then students create paper snowflakes. Finally students complete a computer project with software which teaches the different states of water.

Students color the lightning part of the thunder cloud and then cut out the pattern. They then cut out the cloud pattern and put cotton onto it with glue. They then fold a piece of paper several times to create a snowflake to which they...

Twelfth graders make a number of ionic crystals. They compare a preserved snowflake to the physical properties of the ionic crystals. They apply qualitative observations and drawings in their discussion of the similarities between ice...

Students read the book The Snowy Day and discover various winter themes. In this winter lesson, students develop movements to express the feeling of a snowstorm. Students also construct winter-themed art pieces.

Learners participate in several winter-themed lessons. In this seasonal lesson plan, students study penguins and polar bears by animal masks for dramatic play. Additionally, learners construct winter calendars and celebrate the season of...

Students read story Animals in Winter, and explore similarities and differences in how humans and other animals prepare for survival in winter. Students create class book that compares and illustrates different ways humans and animals...

Let's make coal flowers! With this fun activity, young learners watch and learn as they grow crystals! With simple household materials and the instructions included in this lesson plan, your class can grow their own crystals. Learners...

Students predict the amount of snowfall for the week and measure snowfall.  In this measuring snowfall lesson, student use a precipitation gauge to measure the week's snowfall; and analyze the data to determine whether or not...

Students create coal flowers. In this mining lesson, students discuss the importance of coal during the 1800s and use ingredients to make coal flowers. Students determine the effect temperature has on crystal formation.

Students investigate seasons. In this environment lesson, students describe the four seasons by drawing an appropriate tree for each season.

Students use misprinted photographs donated from a photo processing company to create paintings of a snowy landscape at night.

Students use a hot list to research information on and find pictures of The Water Cycle and make a Kid Pix movie explaining and showing pictures of The Water Cycle. They then give a presentation of their movie of The Water Cycle to...
