Air and Weather<br />

ELEMENTARY SCIENCE<br />

The first and second graders have just completed the “air” investigations in the science unit “Air and<br />

Weather.” They searched for evidence that air is all around us, that is takes up space, and that when<br />

compressed, air can exert force. They were challenged to submerge a tissue under water yet keep it dry, to<br />

build and fly parachutes, to see how air can move things, and to fly a balloon “rocket.” Thank you to parents<br />

Kathleen Collins, Steve Allaway and Dorina Colburn for assistance with these investigations.<br />
