The Rainfall Notebook

Nora’s class wanted to compare rainfall during two weeks. They placed the same rain gauge in an open area and read it at the same time each afternoon. The first week had 12 millimeters of rain. The second had 28 millimeters. One reading was missed when the school was closed. Their teacher asked them to mention that missing reading when describing their results. The class decided that more complete records would make future comparisons stronger.

01 What did the class compare?
02 Why use the same gauge?
03 How much rain was recorded in the first week?
04 Which week had more recorded rain?
05 How much more rain was recorded in the second week?
06 Why was a reading missed?
07 What should the report mention?
08 Which would improve a future comparison?

Read the first question together and ask the learner to explain what it is asking. Offer a drawing, familiar object, or spoken example when the idea feels abstract. Let the child enter each answer independently when ready. Avoid rushing: explaining a strategy is as valuable as reaching the correct response.
