My students love hands-on science activities. Looking at cells in a microscope, creating Punnett squares for heredity, and creating solar ovens for energy have always been activities they get excited about. Unfortunately, when it came to studying weather, they typically study already created forecasts and look at simulations of weather patterns. How wonderful would it be for my students to be able to collect real-time data, from a weather station mounted on top of their classroom? When this project is funded, my students will be able to collect data that provides evidence for the motions and interactions of air masses so that they will be able to predict the change in weather patterns. More importantly, they will be doing this with the changes in weather patterns that will affect their lives. The weather station will allow them to collect the data. Once the data is collected they will be able to create color-coded charts that can be used to help them predict how the weather is going to change. Not only does this meet a science and ELA standard, but it will also get them more excited about the weather, and the next time it is going to snow in Bakersfield, they will be prepared.
