I had never watched snow melt from start to end.
I did on Feb. 25.
I opened the back door and inserted my black sweater into the swirling mass of snowflakes for about 10 seconds. Winter storm #2 was upon us and I wanted to use the opportunity to let my mind wander and wonder. I pulled the sweater back inside and smoothed it out on the counter. With my iPhone 4s and trusty Olloclip macro lens attachment at hand, I began recording the story of one particular clump of snowflakes in a 70 degree room.
I was happily surprised by what I observed.
Never sphere, I think you will enjoy this as well.

This is something you can show the kids at home or at school. Ask them to brainstorm a list of questions that arise in their minds as a result of this ‘snowflake story.’ What could they do to explore water’s properties to find out questions and observe patterns?
