Hello! For many teachers, school is now back in swing after the winter break. I hope that you and your students have been staying warm! I know that schools in many parts of the country have been grappling with unusual cold from the Polar Vortex this week as well. This extreme cold may be causing cabin fever in your students. If it is too cold in your area to safely let them burn off energy outdoors, you can take this opportunity to explore some winter science experiments!
First, you can first view some of these neat videos with your class of the cold weather experiments being done:
If it seems like temperatures will allow you to take your class outside briefly, this link shows how you can easily do these experiments yourself. You can also check out my series of Science readers as a great way to bring more science into your classroom while incorporating Fountas and Pinnell leveled vocabulary, Rebecca Sitton spelling words, and general curriculum standards.
