Want to know what causes the weather? Ask a kindergarten student from Jones Elementary and you’ll find out. Meteorologist Jodi Kodesh visited Jones Elementary to kick off their Wild About Weather STEAM project. Kindergarteners will observe the weather throughout their school year and look for patterns in the data they collect. They may come to find patterns of the weather being cooler in the morning and warmer in the afternoon, and they’ll be sure to find that we are lucky to live in San Diego, where we have a mild climate and the weather is often sunny.
Not only are students in SDUSD lucky for living in a city with amazing weather, but they’re also lucky to have direct contact with weather scientist, Meteorologist Jodi Kodesh. Through her sponsorship with San Diego County Credit Union, she is able to visit two elementary schools a month to share her knowledge about the weather and the story that inspired her to become a meteorologist. Jodi will be visiting Clay Elementary and Sunset View Elementary in the month of November. If you’d like to follow Jodi and her activities around San Diego, connect with her via Facebook.com/JodiKodesh or Instagram.com/JodiKodesh. There, you can find her weather reports and you may even find out what causes the weather.
