Kindergarten, Science, Week 41

• Read Down Comes the Rain by Franklyn M. Branley
• Kept a weather journal
• Recorded the temperature at 8 am each day (I wanted to do 8, 12, 4, and 7, but we kept forgetting all the other times except for 8:00, so by Thursday I decided to forget the other times.)
• Recorded what the sky looked like (clear, wispy clouds, cloudy, etc)
• We discovered that when the sky was covered with clouds, it was warmer because the clouds act like a sweater for the earth and keep the warm air from escaping.
