The weather is changing and Spring has arrived which is causing the snow to melt.

Task:  Find a spot outside in the snow. Each day measure how deep the snow is using a centimeter ruler and keep track of the date, the measurement and weather using a chart. Try to measure it 5 times on different days.  This is an ongoing project...so tune in next week to see what to do with your data! 

Watch this short video on how to use a ruler.  (I will put it in the weblink section too)

*** If you don’t have a ruler or measuring tape at home, use a stick, mark it and then, remember that a good referent for 1 centimeter is the width of your little finger. After you mark how deep the snow is, use your little finger to see “about” how deep it is.
