Air & Weather
Today we launched our science unit "Air & Weather" with an inquiry based lesson focused on the question: What can air do? Students used straws, feathers, cotton balls, and balloons to explore. After our investigation, we learned that air can: (1) move things (2) be felt (3) pull or push (4) be hot or cold (5) make sounds and (6) fill up space. Our scientists took their materials home so the fun with air exploration can continue!
sucking in air pulls the feather
and cotton ball to the straw
air fills up space in this balloon
blowing air through the straw
pushes the feather across the table
sucking in air makes the cotton ball
stick to the straw
