Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Children will learn about science and Minnesota weather. They will learn about snow crystals, snow, and other factors of winter weather. Children will create projects to take home to share with their families.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Participants were asked questions about each experiment - at what temperature does water become a solid, for example. The kids learned so much about water, gases, crystals, snow…they were all very excited and enjoyed making their own 'slime.'
