Snow Day SCORE Calculator

When a big snowstorm is coming, it’s the question on everyone’s minds: Will tomorrow be a snow day? With this ingenious activity, your students and your school community can use the power of play to predict whether a snowstorm will cancel class or not! Level up the math you integrate into this activity with our Challenge Questions for K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12 students. Warning: these questions will force students to use their BRAINS!

Teacher Tip Not in an area where you get much snow? Have your students look at a map to identify a school that’s in the path of inclement weather. See if they can make predictions for your “sister” school.

Awesome…it’s what you do!!!
