What can we observe and describe about weather changes from day to day? What can we observe and describe about weather changes from season to season? How can weather vary and change? What tools can we use to observe, measure, record, and compare day-to-day weather changes?
Students and teachers in Kindergarten and 3rd grade discovered a new tool to help them observe the weather conditions here in Round Rock, as well as all over the world as part of their science curriculum. The WeatherBug app in Chrome provides a virtual window to the world! Students can enter the zip code of any city or the name of any country to view the current weather conditions, including temperature, wind patterns, humidity, etc. They also have access to the live weathercams mounted on building throughout the city for a birdseye view. As the weather changes, the picture in the window changes as well to reflect those changes.
