Teaching About Weather
Weather is something taught in all grade levels and it is taught in more depth depending on the grade level. It is a concept important because it happens around us every day. It is something that is constantly changing. Human interaction with the world can damage the environment and cause a long term negative effect to the weather causing it to harm the environment.

I enjoyed viewing this collection because the environment has been a topic that has been talked about often lately because of the effects we are seeing in the environment due to harm being done by people. These were good resources to use because it shows some ways to teach about the environment. They were also useful because it shows on ways that students can apply what they learn in the classroom to real life. I especially liked the fact that one of the resources that were included was tied in with another subject area which was writing. It definitely shows that it is possible to teach multiple subjects and skills at a time. Another example of this was the resource that focuses on poems with ties it in with language arts. The final resource is also useful because it helps the teacher show students a broader picture to students on what happens when the environment is not being taken care of. As a whole this was a great collection because it provides multiple resources about a specific topic.
