The next week we decided to make our own class barometer and become METEOROLOGISTS by predicting what the weather will do. We used a jar, a stretched balloon and a straw to make it.
We then recorded on a chart what our barometer said the weather was going to do and what the weather was actually doing outside.
When the straw went up we knew the weather would be fine, if it went down the weather would be stormy.
Our barometer was almost always right which meant we could be better prepared for the effects of the weather!
