Meteorology

In November we realized the weather-box with which our pupils check the weather conditions (temperature, air pressure, rain quantity /snow level and nebulosity) every day. Our school doesn’t have automatic meteorological station but not far away from school is the Regional Center of Forecasting of South Transylvania from where the 8th Grade’s pupils had taken correct information about weather. In January we went on a trip, in the mountains (about 30 km from Sibiu) to see a weather station, were the 8th Grade’s pupils will worked together with the 3rd and 4th Grade’s pupils for some hands made weather gadgets: giruets, anemometers, barometers, rain gauges and hygrometers and to observe the clarity of the sky and the speed of the wind (Beaufort scale).
