The weather is a daily part of our classroom. Every day when we come in from recess we discuss the weather. We talk about the tempature (cold, cool, warm, or hot) and if it was sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, windy, rainy, or snowy. The students are doing a great job of noticing the weather and learning neat facts about the weather (ex: it can be cold and sunny at the same time). We record this information as a class and also individually in our science folders.
We had a great time on the field trip to the farm. Students got to experience life on the farm as we saw animals, Christmas trees growing, play in the hay, and enjoy the fresh outdoors. A highlight was picking out a pumpkin to bring home! |
