The first graders in Mrs. Pospisil’s class have been spending time discussing how the weather will be in March. We started by reading a book called ‘In Like a Lion, Out Like a Lamb’ by Marion Dane Bauer. Then we categorized types of weather to either a lion (harsh) or a lamb (calm). Students described lion weather to be stormy, cold, windy, and snowy. Students described lamb weather to be calm, nice, warm, and sunny. Then they voted on how they thought March would begin. Fourteen students voted that it would come in like a lion, and seven students voted that it would come in like a lamb. Students ended the activity by writing a couple of sentences about what they voted for and why. We will wait and see what the March weather will be like!
