This activity focuses on exploring the properties of snow and how snow can change into liquid water. Have the children pack snow into plastic cups so the cups are full of snow. Challenge children to try to determine how many cups of snow it takes to make one cup of water. As a follow-up activity switch the focus from melting snow to how you might keep snow from melting. A materials list, internet resources, standards, and safety practices are provided. This book selection also includes the Table of Contents, Preface, About the Editors, Introduction, Simple Graphing for Young Children, Science Teaching Boards and Boxes, Basic Materials List, and Index.
