Measuring Mother Nature

This Fall our first grade classes planted peas.  As they grow, we've been wondering how weather impacts our plants.  Are they getting enough water?  Is it too cold?  To answer our weather questions, we made journals for tracking three key measures - temperature, wind, and rainfall.  This week students practiced being meteorologists, and used the tools-of-the-trade to record local conditions in our garden.  Our favorite part was making old fashioned pinwheels together and letting the wind make them spin.
