  • Mini Lesson – Nonfiction Read-Aloud
    Mini Lesson – Nonfiction Read-Aloud * Hooked on Books (Towell, 2010, p. 285) Topic: Reading comprehension Grade: 1st – 3rd grades Time: 60 minutes Book Title: Snowflake Bentley Author: Jacqueline Briggs Martin Illustrator: Mary Azarian Written by: Michele Berg Martin, J. (1998). Snowflake Bentley. New York: Houghton Mifflin Company. (Winner of the Caldecott Medal,1999) Synopsis: This is a true story of a farm boy named Wilson Bentley who had a passion for snowflakes. He dreamed about sharing with the world the beauty of these ice crystals. A self-taught scientist-researcher, Wilson Bentley studied snowflakes. As he grew older, his parents purchased a camera for him and Wilson furthered his quest of learning about the small miracles. Wilson Bentley taught us that no two snowflakes are alike and each has its own beauty. Objective: The student will (TSW) be able to write six items about what he or she learned after hearing Snowflake Bentley read aloud with modeled Think-Alouds. 1. Before Reading (15 minutes) Brainstorm with the children a list of words they connect to snow. Some questions to illicit responses: “What is snow? Where does snow fall? Where does it not fall and why? Do snowflakes have a shape? What experiences have you had with snow?” Before reading the story, ask the students to make predictions based on the book cover’s illustration. 2. During Reading (25 minutes) While reading the book, stop at appropriate points to model Think-Alouds (when the teacher describes what she is thinking) and talking points. The teacher shares her answers and opinions after listening to the students’ responses.

  • SNOW FLAKES, GRAMMARS and GENERATIVE PROCESSES Paper
    GA2016 – XIX Generative Art Conference SNOW FLAKES, GRAMMARS AND GENERATIVE PROCESSES Paper Topics: Architecture Author: Marie-Pascale Corcuff France, ENSAB, GRIEF http://www.rennes.archi.fr/grief.php Abstract Snow flakes have fascinated artists, scientists and philosophers (including most famous Kepler and Descartes), for a very long time, since at least 1250 (Albertus Magnus) in the Western World. The association of a strict hexagonal symmetry with such a diversity of specimens that any ice crystal may be considered unique is probably what fascinated all those people. During the 19th century, there was a new approach to form among architects, which is well characterized by the term “grammar”, as in the well known Grammar of Ornament (1856) by Owen Jones. Less widely acknowledged, French architect Jules Bourgoin (1838-1908) [1] wrote a Grammaire élémentaire de l’ornement in 1879. He is most known as a very accurate researcher in arabic art, but the topics he was interested in were very diverse, including snow flakes. During the 20th century we encounter again the term “grammar” with the “shape grammars” introduced in 1971 by George Stiny and James Gips. One of the topics of this paper is to examine if shape grammars, and generative models in general, have presages in those previous grammars, especially regarding Bourgoin, which was the most thorough in trying to link his idea of grammar to philosophy, natural sciences, language, and mathematics. Snow flakes are natural forms and examplary as such: they are obviously the result of a process of growth, which depends upon a few constraints, primarily the crystalline structure of ice, which is six-fold, and conditions of temperature and humidity, which can change dynamically in the micro-environment of the snow flake.

BLANCHARD, (1970). Weatherwise, 23(6), 260-269. Contact Links ON the ninth day of February 1865, Lee's army was evacuating Richmond while Grant's army was moving southward to block the retreat. And on that same day, in the Jericho Historical Society small village of Jericho in northern Vermont, Wilson Alwyn Bentley was born. By the time of his death, 66 years later, he was known to thousands around the world as the Snowflake Man. His researches into the mysteries of rain and snow were discussed in over 100 newspaper and magazine articles, in 10 technical articles in the Monthly Weather Review, and in his book 'Snow Crystals." His painstaking work, carried out entirely by himself on his small Jericho farm, was so thorough and gave such new insights into the formation of precipitation that he deserves the title of America's First Cloud Physicist. The Bentley homestead was in a valley on the east end of Jericho snuggled up at the base of Bolton Mountain. The country winters were long and hard, and in those days attendance at the one-room schoolhouse was very infrequent. Perhaps it was because of this that Bentley obtained his lifelong passion to study and understand water in all of its forms-dew, frost, clouds, rain, and especially snow in the form of ice crystals.

  • CLOUDS Get out of the Fog!
    CLOUDS Get out of the fog! This worksheet gives students the opportunity to learn about the different types of clouds, their formation and the weather phenomena related to them. It is interdisciplinary as the subject of clouds can be addressed both in geography lessons and in science classes. Even though the exercises focus primarily on clouds, there are mathematics and geometry exercises on the theme of snowflakes. The “WEATHER” worksheet complements this one. It introduces large air currents, high- and low-pressures systems, winds, and weather forecasts. It also proposes the construction of weather instruments.

  • The Snowflake Designer
    BOOKS & ARTS COMMENT technologist, follows with an analysis of why starch and gelatin remain better at releasing flavours than xanthan and other thickeners. K. LIBBRECHT There is a substantial report on the Turk- ish delicacy salep dondurma — sometimes known as fox testicle ice cream. It contains the ground roots of an endangered orchid, which are said to resemble fox testicles and give a stretchy, chewy consistency to the ice cream. A group at New York University shows that these properties come from the carbohydrate glucomannan, also found in Japanese konjac flour, which, unlike the orchids, is plentiful. Food-structure expert Tim J. Foster reveals that the stretchiness comes from phase sepa- ration of the glucomannan and milk proteins during freezing, a physical effect that can also be achieved by cooking. Expect to see stretchy savouries in modernist restaurants soon. Other chapters propose making meringue- like solid foams from milk powder and tomatoes, flavouring ice cream with coffee extracted into butter to exclude its bitterness and acidity, and trapping aromas in mixtures of molten sugars. Intriguing but all too sparse are essays from chefs who explain how sci- ence contributes to their creativity. However, I found the book somewhat parochial and not always an enjoyable read. The writing is often less than fluent, and fre- quent pronouncements about the value of food science become mind-numbing. Some chapters reinforce the image of the food sci- entist as a technician out of touch with cooks. In rebutting writer Michael Pollan’s deni- grations of food science and technology, for instance, one chapter makes the astonish- ing claim that cheap processed foods are Q&A Kenneth Libbrecht responsible for increased lifespans during the twentieth century.
