As we begin our second unit, we will be focusing on weather, weather safety, and collecting rainwater. Remi completed a brainstorming web exploring what he already knows about weather. He shared his story about when the tornado hit his mom's restaurant and overturned a few cars. Then, we created a rain gauge. We will measure the rainfall for every day including the weekend for one week. Remi will record the rainfall for each day in his notebook. We will discuss trends. He will take notes in his notebook.
Lastly, we discussed rain dances and why people incorporate them into their communities.
