🌨
Let it Snow!❄ is a course that combines science, math, and art to help students learn how snowflakes are generated and why they are unique.

💠 Students will use geometric principles to dimension and measure irregular shapes or difficult lines. Then, they will translate an abstract design into a printed object that is unique and aesthetically pleasing.

Let it Snow!❄ is designed for students in grades 4 to 8, but it can be adapted for other levels as well.

The course includes instructor resources such as:

⛓ Connections: how the course aligns with the Ontario curriculum expectations and standards for science, math, and art.

📐 How to Apply the Process: a guide on how to use the design thinking process to help students plan, create, test, and improve their snowflakes.

🌎 Global Competencies: how the course develops students’ skills in critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity, and citizenship.

✏ Teachable Moments: tips and suggestions on how to enhance the and address common questions and challenges.

By the end of the course, students will be able to:

⚖ Leverage basic skills to create a unique 3D printed snowflake

📊 Conduct research successfully in pairs to create a written report and diagram of the water cycle

🌀 Discuss the water cycle and the factors that influence the cycle on Earth, including human behavior

📝 Successfully draw and dimension in 2D to create blueprints for designs

🌡 Articulate how snowflake designs are affected by environmental forces in the atmosphere such as humidity and temperature

🌏 Describe how the water cycle might affect people in different countries in different ways (e.g., flooding, drought).
