Just like an individual snowflake, each person in our class is unique. We are in the process of writing an I am Unique poem. We are looking forward to typing up our work and displaying our poems in the hallway!

Snowflake Bentley
We are reading this wonderful book in class. It's about the life of Wilson Bentley, (1865-1931) the man who discovered that no two snowflakes are alike. He captured more than 5,000 snowflakes in his lifetime. "Under a microscope, I found that snowflakes were miracles of beauty; and it seemed a shame that this beauty should not be seen and appreciated by others. Every crystal was a masterpiece of design and no one design was ever repeated. When a snowflake melted, that design was forever lost. Just that much beauty was gone, without leaving any record behind." Wilson Bentley, 1925
