Goal

Two years ago Poinciana Elementary School was put on the map as a location in which students could investigate, and utilize weather tools, global radar systems and data technology. Last year we continued that goal with help from our community. In an ongoing collaborative effort we would like to continue to support our students and community. Our goal is simple to allow students to continue their strides forward as collaborators, leaders, scientists and engineers while continuing to utilize a program that was cut short due to the circumstances world wide. Our goal is to improve the students and community members understanding of how our research can impact those around us.  

What will be done with my students

Students will utilize the worldwide Science and Education Globe Program along with Earth Networks to investigate and explore the Earth's atmosphere, weather and climate. Students and community members will also further their education in science, technology, engineering and math by having the opportunity to conduct research locally as well as globally while analyzing different environments utilizing weather tools, global radar systems, data analogy and more. Students will also be able to see how their research can impact scientists globally in understanding our climate and changing weather systems.  

Benefits to my students

Students will continue to be able to connect to a network of students, teachers, and volunteers around the world to better understand, sustain and improve Earth's environment at local, regional and global levels. Students will improve mathematical, technological, observational and communication skills by utilizing the weather equipment both virtually and in person to experience a sense of community and school pride while collaborating with their peers. .
