Today, we had a great opportunity for critical thinking! We used our communication and collaboration skills to discuss weather patterns across the United States with other classes. The classes were from Upstate New York; Irving, Texas; and Eastern Kansas. We did this using Google Hangouts. To prepare for the discussion, we shared a Google Doc with the other classes that included questions each class would be asking. We researched and collected data to help us answer the questions they had. We also used a Google My Map to mark our locations, natural disasters, flood zones, landforms, and more. We already learned so much about how the weather in Texas and Kansas moves east towards us! We will continue to analyze the data we found and relate it to our weather discoveries in our classroom.
