Weather Unit

We were so excited to dive into our first science unit these past couple of weeks! We learned that weather is how the sky looks and how the air feels. We also learned that weather occurs in the troposphere, the layer of the atmosphere that is closest to earth.  Students also learned how meteorologists collect important weather data for forecasts. We focused on learning the tools that gather key weather information. Some of these tools included barometers, anemometers, thermometers, rain gauges, and wind vanes.
