Greetings, Family!

Weather affects nearly every part of our lives. In our next unit,

“Weather,” our science class will be studying different types of weather.

We will learn how to measure weather conditions, such as tempera-

ture, wind speed, wind direction, and amount of rain. Students will

learn how to classify clouds by their shape and height. We’ll explore

where puddles go after it rains, how clouds, dew, and frost form, and

how water cycles from Earth’s surface to air, clouds, and back to the

surface again.

You can make science come alive for your child in and around your

home. Do you have a thermometer or other weather instrument? Per-

haps you can set aside a few moments each day to read the instrument

with your child. Do you have a computer? You can access up-to-the-

minute weather data on Web sites. You can also have your child look

in newspapers and watch the news for weather forecasts.

For some hands-on activities in this module, we could use extra help in

the classroom. No particular expertise is needed, just a willingness to

help. Do you or other family members have time to spare during the

school day? If so, please ﬁll out the form below and have your student

return it to class. You will be contacted about your availability on a

particular day and time.

Thank you very much for your help!
