These pictures are from a very exciting science/math project the Bumblebees did in creating artificial snow and measuring it before and after. Each student had two scoops of the artificial snow powder on their tray. They measured the height and width of the powder then added a half cup of water and watched the amazing change. The salt like powder granules turned into fluffy, white, cool snow before their eyes. They measured again and found results quadrupling their original measurements. They were impressed with the difference (and had fun playing in the snow as well!)
