Looking at a picture in a book is not always bad, but touching, experimenting with, writing your own hypothesis, and then having the tools to test it, creates a learning environment where even the most reluctant students will want to be ENGAGED in their own learning! Weather is ever changing in most parts of the world, however in Las Vegas, NV it is quite static, hot and windy! My goal is to provide a much wider look into weather using a weather station, barometers, thermometers, and multiple hands on experiences for students to have those 'aha', 'wow' moments at a young age. Thus hooking them into further explorations of the world around them. The desired tools will allow students to get hands on experiences a book or lecture cannot provide. These tools will require lessons in record keeping, timely monitoring, writing, challenging thoughts, and questioning daily as well as long range changes in weather and climate in our area. When students are actively engaged in "doing" science they develop a deeper level of understanding specific content and a desire to continue learning about their world, which allows them to make more informed decisions as adults.
