17. What we learned:
We learned the process of the water cycle and what a solid, liquid, and a gas is. We also learned the forms of precipitation and the 3 different clouds along with climate and weather. We also learned weather measuring tools. We learned what a front is. My favorite part was the climate and weather from this unit.
