Winter Quarter Writing Contest

So, I know Deb is going to start asking us for ideas for this, so I decided to get a jump on it.

My thought is we should ask students to write about snow, seeing as it is Winter. Not just about what it looks like or what it is or something boring like that. Write about what snow is to them. How does snow make you feel, what emotions does it invoke, what does it remind you of? Does it take you back to where you grew up? Do you love it or hate it? Does a blanket of snow make you feel peaceful or does it look like the death of all the color of Autumn.

Write about what snow is to you personally.
