Weather Station at School: An SEP Initiative

Help me give my students a monitoring device for data collection and analysis of local weather at school.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Sayco's classroom raised $203

This project is fully funded

My Project

Welcome to our school's latest initiative - building a mini-weather station right here in our courtyard! This exciting project is not just about setting up instruments; it's about empowering our students to become weather researchers and explorers of the natural world.

Our primary goal for this project is to foster a deeper understanding of meteorology and weather science among our students.

Through hands-on exploration and data collection, we aim to:

1. Cultivate curiosity and a sense of wonder about the natural world.

2. Develop critical thinking skills by analyzing weather data and identifying patterns and trends.

3. Encourage collaboration and teamwork as students work together to collect, analyze, and interpret weather data.

4. Promote environmental stewardship by raising awareness of the connections between weather, climate, and human activities.
