A couple of Fridays ago, we had finished an assignment and didn't want to start a new one with the weekend looming. We decided, therefore, to have a 'Friday Fun Day'. On 'Friday Fun Day', we simply choose something fun and artsy to do that doesn't require too much pre planning or learning. This time, we made snowflakes! The students really had a blast and made some truly beautiful snowflakes! All of it was done without using pre-designed patterns.
