When I share this fact with my students I tell them that God, our wonderful creator, never says "Oops! Accidentally made those to snowflakes the same!"
Nope!
He makes each one unique. Just like he creates each of us special. When I do this lesson, I spend time having students share how they are unique.
What makes her special?
We make our own unique snowflakes out of folded coffee filters after reading this story.
My students LOVED cutting their own designs. They begged to do more than one. (Good thing coffee filters are cheep AND our classroom was scheduled to be vacuumed that day. It looked like it had snowed in our room.)
The most ornate snowflakes were turned into an art project with Psalms 139:14:
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
I don't add glitter often...but how can you resist when the end result looks so pretty?
