Thanks for sharing and linking to my site, Erin!! I love the geometry extension. AWESOME!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! When I was photoshopping the craft sticks, I noticed shapes within the snowflake and thought cool! This is a great activity for a math station in the classroom. Kids could work independently and create tons of different snowflakes without gluing them.
