In this episode of SciShow Kids, Jessi and Squeaks learn about places with record-breaking rainfall.
Hosted by: Jessi Knudsen Castañeda (she/her/they/them)
Third Grade Next Generation Science Standards
Disciplinary Core Ideas:
ESS2.D: Weather and Climate - Scientists record patterns of the weather across different times and areas so that they can make predictions about what kind of weather might happen next (3-ESS2-1).
Climate describes a range of an area's typical weather conditions and the extent to which those conditions vary over years (3-ESS2-2).
Performance Expectations:
3-ESS2-1 Represent data in tables and graphical displays to describe typical weather conditions expected during a particular season
3-ESS2-2 Obtain and combine information to describe climates in different regions of the world
