Weather Map 12/10/13

I love how my 4th graders take such pride in their Science Notebooks by making their hand-outs pretty and colorful!!

Air Mass and Fronts 12/9/13

Today in Science we added two pages to our Science Notebook. On page 58 we added a page about air masses. We labeled the six air masses that affect weather in the United States. On page 59 we learned about fronts. We drew the three symbols for cold, warm, and stationary fronts. Our cold front that came on Thursday, and brought cold weather and rain helped us understand the concept!! 🙂 Big thanks to Eve Heaton and her blog — they provided the inspiration for these Science pages!!

Water Cycle 12/5/13

We are currently studying Chapter 6 Water Cycle and Weather. We are learning so much in Science this year!! Today in Science we added two new pages to our Science Notebook. I LOVED that graphic organizer at the top of this picture! I was surfing Teachers Pay Teachers over Thanksgiving, and I found it for free!! I’ve included the link here for anyone interested. We finished class by illustrating the Water Cycle. I’ve included my illustration from my notebook — don’t judge me too harshly .. I’m not an artist!! 🙂 I will be snapping pictures tomorrow of the kiddos illustrations — they will have time to complete the page at the beginning of class tomorrow. Stay tuned — FUN lab coming up tomorrow!! 🙂
