Winter - Science - Crystal Snowflakes - STEM - Special Education

Looking to add a little hands-on winter fun into your class? I have created this easy step-by-step lesson on how to make crystal snowflakes that will leave your kids in awe! Borax snowflakes are a beautiful way to bring functional reading writing and science skills to life.

Kids absolutely love bringing them home parents are even more happy to see the reading, writing, and science that went behind creating them. Unlike sugar or salt crystals that take days to form, these crystal snowflakes are done overnight. Students beg for this activity each year and I am sure yours will too! 

Even though this lesson was originally designed for special education students, this download is a perfect addition to any classroom because of its high interest content, visual, and hands on teaching methods.
