It was 6 degrees (F) at 9:00 this morning at Sunset Elementary School in Craig, Colorado, USA. We had to stay inside for recess, but it was up to 19 at lunch time so we went outside! Not much snow left from the weekend storm, but enough to have a little winter fun!

Mrs. Arnett, it's still autumn here in Lebanon, but we're getting ready for winter. The highlands of Lebanon enjoy heavy snowfall, but Beirut has a cool, rainy winter. Now we can compare and contrast the differences in weather...
Enjoy the snow while it lasts!

Do you know that a temperature of 6 degrees F is equivalent to approximately -14 degrees C, and 19 degrees F is equivalent to approximately -7 degrees C. We can use the following formula to convert from Fahrenheit scale to Centegrade scale: t C/100= (t F-32)/180.
This is a great opporunity for the students of Makassed-Khalil Shehab Elem. school in Beirut, Lebanon, and Sunset Elementary School in Craig, Colorado, USA to learn about the two different ways used to measure the temperature!

Last year our students got to learn the conversion between inches and cm through an international activity with Cauldeen Primary School.Thank you for drawing our attention to the conversion between Fahrenheit and Celcius.I'll make sure Miss Rawaa, the science teacher, will work on that starting with the difference between the weather in Colorado and Beirut.It will be a meaningful start.
Thanks again
