Introduction

Weather Watchers Dear Parents and Guardians,   Our class is beginning the Alabma Math, Science and Technology (AMSTI) unit of study on metorology. Metorology is the study of changes in weather which includes the temperature, air pressure, moisture and wind direction. Weather is constantly changing and is very important in our daily life. Each student will act as a metorologist and gather data. Students are to observe daily local weather conditions such as temperature, rainfall, cloud cover, wind speed and wind direction for the next two weeks. They will be document these weather conditions on the calendar and create a journal entry of their daily data. This was modeled for them in class. Also, they are to contribute one weather photo to the PlanetFoss weather page during this two week period. There are several ways that you can help the student. You can watch the local weather and discuss the weather report. Guide your child through this scientific inquiry. The weather photo upload will require adult assistance. Please let me know if you have questions. Have fun learning about the weather. Mrs. Large
