This is what the sky looked like the day we went out to cloud watch!!! Amazing!
I just pointed my camera up, and
OH, MY, GOODNESS!! It took my breath away! Beautiful!
The rest of this post pales in comparison...

Our Weather Words chart
The kiddos journaling outside
Working in groups to create Water Cycles
The Wizard of Oz
We are reading The Wizard of Oz during our Weather unit!
I found these 3 copies of this classic.
1) The top left one is my personal childhood book and the one I'm
using as a read aloud. It has been well loved.
2) The top right is a picture book and great for all first graders.
3) The bottom book is a Stepping Stones chapter book. I like it for
those independent readers, but the language is not as descriptive
as our read aloud.
Since the kids are SO into The Wizard of Oz, I created a little Number Game they could play independently. It's played like UNO, but with characters instead of colors. They are LOVING it!! I will definitely make more of these!
I took this pic before all the cards were cut out.

For I lift my eyes unto the Lord...Psalm 123
Have an incredible week!
