I enjoyed this article for many reasons. First, I like how it addresses phenomena that are happening all around us. This is something students can easily witness, so I appreciated the relevance of the phenomena to the students.

It also engaged students more since the activity applied to their region rather than studying something that may never apply to them.

Students of all ages are able to appreciate the natural world - taking walks in nature with someone knowledgeable is a great way to feed a young child's natural curiosity. This is a great resource!
