OR
Learners will work in teams of three to compare the weather forecasts for three cities in three different regions of the United States. Learners will create a slide in which they use their data to recommend where we should go on spring break.
MODIFICATION
Each Day:
- The photographer will take a picture representing the day's weather and add it to the spreadsheet.
- The data collector will add the high temp, the low temp and the precipitation for the day to the team spreadsheet.
- The reporter will link the spreadsheet to a blog post that reports on the day's weather.
At the end of the week, the team will:
Create a chart representing the week's weather.
Use data to post a forecast for the following week.
REDEFINITION
Instead of a blog post, students will create a weekly vodcast that parents and the community can subscribe to for weekly weather information.
OR
Learners will zoom or skype with learners from another school.
