It's Cloudy with a Chance Of....

     We are currently working on our first official science unit, Weather.  During this unit our students will take on the role of a scientist to learn about all about weather.  We have already learned about the water cycle and employed our LIFESKILL of creativity to create a large water cycle on our immersion wall.  We will also learn about various types of severe weather, collect data using real weather instruments, and research the different types of clouds, just to name a few.  This unit will be very interactive and provides lots of exciting, hands-on experiences for your children.  We are looking to forward to a visit from meteorologist Von Gaskin, from WIS, on next Tuesday.  Ask your child to share with you the four parts of the water cycle and ask him or her what type(s) of clouds are out next time you all are outside.
