This site has many links to resources for Night of the Twisters or for tornado research. Includes tornado information, activities, photos and video, lesson plans, etc.
After learning to use an internet
weather website to gather and record data
for different regions, several students are
designated as the weather reporters for the
week. Each morning for that week, during
morning centers time, each person on the
team gathers and records the weather data
for the area and for Paris, France. The student
in the group designated as "Weather
Person of the Day" then compares his/her
data to that gathered by the others to assure
accuracy. Finally, he/she enters the data
into a spreadsheet form which tallies and
graphs the weather information over time.
Each week the group changes until all students
have had a turn.
