Snowman Name Craft

06 December 2023

My snowman name craft pack can help your make a lovely classroom display for the winter holiday season. Here are some tips!

print the pages at a smaller ratio for less cutting (these images show the snowmen at full size)
use the plain snowball option and have students write the letters of their name
spend a math lesson creating a numbered list of the all the letters needed for the class a week before you start the craft
write a chart of all the class names and for a brain break or warm up each day, take a few letters and count the total

Craft in the classroom not only supports your students’ emerging creativity, organization and fine motor skills but it can help you nurture your classroom community. Once on display you have the opportunity to integrate meaningful language, talking and listening into your day. Have students talk to the class and each other about their work and the decisions they made completing it.

Also, with these snowmen on display, have a listening warm-up for math or literacy. Challenge students to find a name based on your verbal description - e.g.:

Which snowman has 5 letters, the last being a vowel?
How many snowmen have 6 letters in their name?
Which snowman is between two that have double letters?
