We make our own snow...

It was great getting all of my cupcakes back this week after two weeks off! We started a unit about snow and snowmen. Of course, living in Florida we don't have any snow to play with, but I had an idea to help us visualize snow. GLITTER! We read books about building snowmen so my cupcakes could build some background knowledge about snow, then they wrote about building snowmen using sequencing words. After their writing was complete, the cupcakes illustrated a "snowy" picture and added some snowy pizazz with white glitter.

Then........

Hehe but it was ok, he knows Mrs. Dapcic's love for glitter and told us to carry on with our creations!

Here is a sample...
