Hi Kathryn, thanks for the great response! I choose a different video, but I had already seen the one you choose in the past and liked it so I was excited to see your thoughts and ideas on it. I love your ideas to use this video to introduce and branch into a bunch of science experiences. While teaching in my past practicum I got to run a science unit and the days where experiments or hands-on activities were the focus were always the best days. Kids love experiences, especially at this young age, it is such a great way for them to contextualize their learning in a way they understand, and help them see it in a context that fits into their world. I hadn’t really considered the possibility of experiments to explain the water cycle, but I love it and when I am teaching about the water cycle again I will surely be using your ideas. Thanks so much for sharing Kathryn!

All the best,

Morgan
