This week, Primary 4 started their new Weather-themed topic!
We are learning about how the weather affects our daily lives, how to measure/record weather and how to create our very own weather reports!
We looked at the different tools that make up a weather station – a barometer (pressure), a thermometer (temperature), a wind vane (wind direction), an anemometer (wind speed) and a rain gauge (precipitation). We made wind vanes on Wednesday afternoon and tested them in the playground. Using the orchard as North, we found that the wind was blowing in a Southwesterly direction. We were also able to apply our recent learning about compass points.
Have a look at how we got on!
Until next time…
Primary 4 & Miss M 🙂
