Snowflakes

Snowflakes Snowflakes come from way up high. Snowflakes reach us from the sky. The kids are singing this song. They are singing this song because it's snowing, and they will be going out soon to play in the snow! Their teacher, Mrs. Austin, knows that her students love the snow “ Did you know that in one snowstorm, billions of snowflakes fall?" she asks. “ Billions?” The kids are amazed. “ And even more amazing: no two snowflakes look the same. Each snowflake has its own shape. And every snowflake has six sides. "

The kids are really excited to learn about snowflakes. Their teacher continues, " Snowflakes are not always white. In places where there is a lot of pollution, snow-flakes can be black or grey. " One kid asks, " How fast do snowflakes fall?" Mrs. Austin smiles. " About 5 kilometres an hour, " she says. “ Don't worry. You won't get hurt by falling snow-flakes. They are gentle and light. Now, let's go out and play! ”
