Holden Students Study the Weather

Students from Holden Elementary in Kent studied weather with the aid of the AT&T classroom. 2nd grade teacher Amy Hopkins used a variety of methods to help her students understand weather and its effects. A Kidspiration template provided a format for students to display and record daily weather, including temperature, and cloud type. Learning the weather patterns that are associated with different cloud types gave students the opportunity to make
predictions based on their observations.
