"Orange" Day and Meeting a Meterologist

Thursday was a very exciting day for our classroom!  Our IB Unit this month is all about weather so Thursday morning we met a Meteorologist who explained how all the things we have been learning about effect our daily activites and exactly what they do to predict what the weather will be like for the day.  He read two books to us, "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" and "Franklin and The Thunderstorm."

 

 

 

 He used a balloon and a needle to explain what happens inside a thunder cloud and why the loud "boom" happens during a thunderstorm!  This was after reading "Franklin and The Thunderstorm" and the kids LOVED it!

  Then a few pictures of our class from "Orange" Day!
