This was such a fun book! It talks about safety at home and then asks questions about weather and what you can do to tell certian things. It also has mini experiements after some of the questions that you can do at home or in a classroom! One example is What makes tornadoes go around? It will explain the way they go around and then it has an experiment using two bottles to create a mini tornado.
Personal Reaction- My librarian suggested this book to me and I am so glad she did. I really enjoyed it because it asks simple children questions about weather that are basic yet, some students would not know. This would be a perfect book for a classroom and the experiments are user friendly and fun.
Classroom Extension Ideas-
1. The teacher can use the experiments in this book to teach about new weather lessons.
2. This book can also be placed by a small science activity center by a window and looked at to see more detials about what the weather is doing outside that day.
