Why does it rain? Where does the water come from? Will it rain or snow tomorrow? Can I walk on clouds? With the activities in this STC® unit, your students will explore various weather features and discover how weather affects their lives.
Using a weather calendar, students will record weather data including wind, precipitation, temperature, cloud cover. Students will then make their own weather observations and compare them to official forecasts. Students get to shake, rattle, and roll an assortment of objects and materials while engaging in science explorations linked to their everyday lives.
Students examine solids and sort them on the basis of criteria of their own choosing. Discussion leads to the concept of properties.
The Two Use Unit Kit comes with all of the great materials you’d expect from the STC Program™ along with a box containing the materials for a second, non-concurrent use. All you need to do is set the box aside until you are ready for it.
