(2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.2.3, 2.2.4, 2.2.5, 2.2.6) 2nd grade science Day to day and over the seasons, observe, measure, record and recognize patterns and ask questions about features of weather

I chose this site because it had great explinations of the weather. You can create many different activities to demonste understanding of weather. One thing I would do it first teach the students the aspests of weather and the differences in lengths of daylight in difference seasons. Then , we would all together do an activity to determine the difference in Earth's titls and how it affects weather during different seasons. Extensions: you can extend this activity for younger students by creating a chart to graph the different seasons and what the weather looks like in those seasons, then you can demonstrate the earths tilt with a globe and have the students guess which season they think our state would be in depending on Earth's tilt. Adaptions: I would suggest using illustrations to explain vocabulary, they can make a vocabulary journal.
