August-June
Weather has a big influence on the natural world. Sunlight warms water, air and soil, which changes how living things behave. In this program, we will look for evidence of the effects of short and long-term weather as we explore the impact on plants and animals at Greenacres.

- LS Grade K: Living things have physical traits and behaviors, which influence their survival.
NGSS Standards:
- K-PS3-1. Make observations to determine the effect of sunlight on Earth’s surface
- K-ESS2-1. Use and share observations of local weather conditions to describe patterns over time.
