Explanation

Why does it Snow?

Today we have been writing explanations (working on using causal connectives) here are a few of the most creative and unusual:

It snows owing to the fact that Jack Frost has a pillow fight and the feathers fall down.    Maryam

It snows when the elves get very excited and they make snow and sprinkle it all around England.  Mark

It snows because fairies make snow in their cloud freezers and the clouds drip.    Oliveya

It snows as a result of Jack and The Giant having a pillow fight.   Aayan

It snows due to the fact Santa’s dandruff falls off his hair.    Rishi

It snows owing to the fact God creates snowflakes on a computer, duplicates them and turns them into snow and drops them on different countries.    Zuhayr
