Twisters touch down in Room 205:

Guided reading lessons this week were all about tornadoes .In the wake of the recent tornadoes in the Mid-west we worked hard learning about how these storms can start and how to stay safe. We used the tornado bottle models to observe the formation of the funnel type column that forms during a tornado. This week we are writing our own weather reports and drawing weather patterns across the United States.
