Frosty the Snow-Glyph

Today we worked very hard during math to create Frosty the Snow-Glyph.  What is a glyph you ask?  A glyph is a picture that gives information about the person who made it.
First, we had to answer four questions to get the legend for our individual glyphs.  Each part of frosty tells something about us.  The mittens tell how much you like snow.  Polka-dotted mittens means you like snow a lot and striped mittens mean you like snow a little bit.  The hat tells what your favourite thing to make in the snow is.  A top hat means you like to make snowmen, a hat with a pom-pom means you like to make snowballs and a sun hat means you like to make snow forts.  The scarf tells what winter sport you like most.  A plain scarf means you like sledding, a striped scarf means you like ice-skating and a polka-dotted scarf means you like skiing.  What frosty is holding in his hand tells whether you would like to get more snow where you live or not.  A broom means you would like to get more snow where you live and a shovel means you would not like to get more snow where you live.
Have a look at our glyphs and see if you can figure out whether we like snow a lot or a little, what our favourite thing to make in the snow is, what winter sport we like most and whether or not we would like more snow where we live.

    Your snow glyphs are great. I really liked your movie. From Koden in Division 16, Ms. Lirenman's class across the hall.
