Snowflake Fall
Written by: Patricia MacLachlan
It is hard to believe, but two years ago, we lost the beautiful children from Sandyhook Elementary and this book was written as a tribute to them. It’s poetic beauty eloquently compares the unique features of snowflakes to children. I think it is a wonderful model for word choice, but can also work well to teach many other skills. (figurative language, visualizing, cause/effect relationships, analogy, and more).
