Students were blown away at Winthrop Avenue School in the Bellmore Public School District while learning the fun science behind Earth’s weather system during a special lesson on March 17.
Winthrop Winning Star Leaders enjoyed hands-on demonstrations that showed how Earth’s weather functions and is affected by environmental factors. The strength of air pressure, for example, was shown when one student found it difficult to knock a ruler off a desk when it was covered by a thin newspaper. A spiraling cone of blue water that formed as it transferred from one bottle to another also showed how tornadoes can be formed. The lessons helped grow students’ appreciation for our environment while being captivated by memorable demonstrations.
