Today, we explored the question of why it snows in winter. We discussed vocabulary, such as thermometer, icicles, and snowflakes. We learned the temperature that is needed for something to freeze, and the make-up of snow, which occurs when water vapor freezes into ice crystals in cold clouds. Jonathan completed a few pages in his Science Student Practice book which demonstrated his comprehension of the material. I also utilized a supplemental learning activity from a corresponding 2nd grade science activity guide to consolidate emergent gains and challenge Jonathan a bit; he admirably rose to the challenge.
