Winter Science Activity Projects

Integrate the winter season into your science classroom with these three activities that will have students test how warm mittens keep your hands in cold weather, whether or not mittens are warmer than gloves, and an NGSS aligned STEM activity that allows students to design and create a mitten or glove to keep their hand warm in cold temperatures.

Students will:

• learn which hand covering keeps their hand the warmest in cold temperatures.
• compare mittens to gloves to determine which one is better for the winter season
• design and create a hand covering from given classroom materials

This lesson includes:

• Sneak Peek into My Classroom: Tips and tricks on how I use this resource in my own classroom and how the activity aligns to NGSS.
