Let students show their uniqueness by creating their own snowman! This snowman activity works great to connect to descriptive writing, even for younger grades. Students can cut and build their own and add lots of descriptive words to share how theirs is unique. If you need a writing template to go with this activity, be sure to check out “All I Need for a Snowman” here on Teach Junkie.
How can students create their own cut n’ build snowman? There are grayed areas to help students assemble theirs correctly, but the decorating is left up to what you have. Use any materials like construction paper, scrapbook paper, yarn, buttons, sequins, sticks, cotton balls and leave the rest to your students’ creative minds.
