Monday

Today we talked about what are the different aspects of weather. We touched on some keywords like humidity, condensation, and evaporation. We were all enraptured by our cloud/rain in a jar experiment.

Tuesday

Cloud day!!!!! We learned the different cloud names, how to identify them, and what these clouds can tell us about the weather. We had so much fun with our shaving cream cloud experiments and we made cloud scapes.

Wednesday

This is the day that all the campers had been eagerly await... natural disaster day. We constructed and erupted volcanos and learned about volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, hurricanes, and tornados.

Thursday

This was a great day to discuss the different careers that you have related to weather. We brainstormed an impressive list and then got to work scripting our own weather forecasts. Using imagination, props, costumes and our newfound weather knowledge, our campers filmed their forecasts.

Friday

The kids finished up the week with a weather mural and a formal viewing of the edited weather forecast. And of course, we finished the day off with our classic sprinklers and popsicles.
