Collect consistent daily weather data, temperature, sky condition, precipitation, and wind, over several days as real scientific data for later analysis.
Weather is what the air and sky are doing right now or on a particular day, such as the temperature, whether it is sunny, cloudy, or rainy, and whether it is windy or still. Scientists collect data, organized observations recorded consistently, over time in order to find real patterns.
This week, you become a weather data collector, recording the same categories of weather information every day so that the results can be fairly compared later.
Mastery looks like: They collect consistent daily weather data across at least three days, using the same four categories each time.
Common stumbles: Recording categories inconsistently, such as skipping wind on some days, or confusing categories, like writing "cold" under precipitation.
