It’s the time of year for
snowmen and you might be singing about Frosty, laughing at Olaf in FROZEN, the fun
new Disney movie, or building a snowman on your front lawn. Frosty and Olaf are
memorable characters, who happen to be made out of snow. They also both face
the possibility and challenge of melting.
One popular snowman writing
craft encourages kids to make a melted snowman out of a paper bowl and
construction paper and write about their own snowman to explain why it melted.
Here’s another great way to
use a snowman (or snowwoman) to develop explanatory writing skills, useful for
science research and report skills.
1.
Photograph
images of snow at home and at school. If there is no snow in your town, use
winter pictures from magazines and newspapers.
2.
Find books on
weather and arctic geography and read about the different kinds of snow.
3.
Write down at
least ten facts about snow.
4.
Write
step-by-step instructions on how to build a snowman, including the snow facts.
Number each step. Imagine these instructions are for someone from a desert
region who is seeing snow for the very first time. Include every detail to
build a snowman; from how to roll a snowball to placing a carrot for a nose,
and how to make a snowman smile out of rocks. The more details shared for each
step, the easier it will be for others to follow your instructions.
5. Read the
instructions aloud to see if you included all information needed to build a
snowman.
6.
If there is snow
on the ground at your school, bundle up, go outside, and have fun following one
another’s step-by-step snowman building instructions.
7. Finish this step-by-step writing task by building your own snowman with a big smile.
