SnowSchool At Home

SnowSchool Activities for Every Week of Winter for Every Grade!

We’ve created a winter-long series of outdoor SnowSchool activities and simple snow science experiments that can be right in your backyard, local park or schoolyard!  Each activity has a short video to introduce it, and for those who are using SnowSchool for virtual schooling, online classrooms or homeschooling, a corresponding activity/curriculum guide is provided.
