Products
Weather Observation Journal and Personal Advisory Postcard
Each student creates a weather observation journal page set and one advisory postcard that uses class data and expert evidence to give a clear tip for families. The work shows individual understanding of weather patterns and how science can help a community.
Class Weather Advisory Poster Set and Community Expo Presentation
Teams combine student research into one shared problem statement and a revised poster set with a short presentation for families and staff. The final product explains what the class learned, why the weather advice matters, and how feedback improved the solution.
