Windsocks
On Thursday, September 26th, Mrs. Wright's Kindergarten class learned about wind and storms through a Mystery Science lesson. After the lesson, they made windsocks and took them outside to see if it was windy. Her students were very excited to see the windsocks blow in the wind. It was a fun, hands-on way to observe weather!
