Today we read pp. 37-42 about climate and weather. The students learned they are different than what they thought. We learned weather is day-to-day changes, and climate is an average of the weather over many years. Part of our discussion was that wind, bodies of water, and landforms can affect the weather and climate. Students had a short assignment, six problems, that is due tomorrow.
