| Dr. DeLeo placed a weather station on the roof of our school. The weather station has instruments that measure, temperature, wind direction, wind speed, rainfall, and relative humidity. Here are some pictures of the weather station and Dr. DeLeo putting it together and then installing it on our roof. |

The weather station on the roof is wireless. That means that the weather readings are sent by radio waves (without wires) right to display units in our classrooms. So, we could see the outside temperature, wind speed, and so forth from right in our classrooms! Here is a photo of display unit.

Our teachers helped us to record the weather as part of our science unit on weather. As part of the program, we each got a weather placemat to keep. |

I hope you have enjoyed this web presentation as much as we enjoyed sharing the actual learning experience with your son or daughter. Although we have endeavored to exclude photographs where permission has been denied, it is possible for errors to occur. If you would like us to remove a photograph of your son or daughter for any reason, please send me an e-mail message at lgd0@lehigh.edu or call me at 610-758-3413, and we will remove it promptly. Please note that we will never associate a child's full or last name with a photograph except in circumstances where special permission was explicitly provided. Thank you. Gary DeLeo. |
