New Winter Themed resources for Middle School Science

Welcome to winter! Whether you’re (like me) already on your third snowfall of the season or (like our southern friends) finally breaking out the sweaters, the hygge lifestyle takes over all of us this time of year.

Some ways to bring the cozy into your classroom include updating your classroom decor – I added a few hundred student-made snowflakes to the back of my room before the winter break. Softer lighting and more comfortable seating options are another way that some teachers are embracing the season. My niece is particularly thrilled with her teacher’s hot cocoa reward incentive, and my own students loved the fifteen minute winter nature walk we took looking for signs of animal or plant life on the campus.

Embracing the cozy with your students can be as simple as using seasonal resources without sacrificing content. Try these new winter themed resources for your middle school classroom and see if your students are more engaged!
