WHAT CLIMATIC CONDITIONS EXIST AT YOUR SCHOOL? Use graph paper to prepare a map of the school grounds showing the arrangement of buildings, lawns, shrubs, trees, etc. Use thermometers to measure the temperatures of the air, water, and soil in different locations around the grounds. These measurements can be placed in the appropriate squares on the map. Remember, air temperatures are more accurate if the ther- mometer is allowed to swing freely in the air from the end of a string. Ground temperatures can be taken by carefully inserting the bulb end of the thermometer in the soft earth. Surface temperatures are more accurate if the bulb is shaded from sunlight. Compare the temperatures. If you added the temperatures and divided by the number of places where you measured the temperatures, would the result be an average temperature? Temperatures can also be compared for different seasons of the year. If this project were done at or close to the time of the solstices and equinoxes, you could compare the seasons and decide what adjectives would apply to your general climatic condition.
