How Blizzards Happen

Learn what causes blizzards by following a tiny droplet of water as it moves through the water cycle. Share the How Blizzards Happen interactive Bookquest with individual or small groups of students. They can process their learning using the How Blizzards Happen Crossword either online or in printed form (Answer Key). Or, have students complete the Open-Ended Reflection Form. Then discuss what you’ve learned about what causes these disasters!

Teacher Tip Want to give your students a challenge? Let them see the Crossword before exploring the Bookquest. Then, as they explore the resource, they’ll need to try to remember both the questions and the answers.

Awesome…it’s what you do!!!
