This month Team Imagination has been learning all about weather. At morning meeting the students have been discussing and keeping track of the different types of weather and learning more about reading the temperature on a thermometer. The students have also been keeping a weather journal and making observations and predictions about the weather using student related weather websites offered through www.weather.com. If you happen to be in the back hall by Mrs. VanGuilder and Mrs. Konrad's classrooms check out the new Team Imagination weather wall. Students on team Imagination will be taking turns being the daily weather reporter recording the local and national weather, sunrise and sunset, and the moon phases.
