To extend their CKLA lesson on meteorology, Kindergarten students in Mrs. Chism’s class got to pretend to be a weatherperson on the news and orally present a “Silly Forecast” to the class. Our silly forecast predictions were inspired by the book “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” written by Judi Barrett. ☀️☁️🌧️🌨️
