In Lesson 4, we are going to learn about what the sun does. Here are our I Can statements:
What Does the Sun Do?
The sun gives us light and heat. The sun warms the sky (air), sea (water) and sand
(land). Light from the sun or its absence causes the weather. Have you ever felt the
sun on your skin? How did it feel? Does the weather change when the sun comes up
or goes down?
Clouds are made from lots of water. As the sun warms water in oceans, streams, and
rivers, it get hot and goes up into the sky. The higher the water goes, the colder it
get. Eventually, the water turns into clouds!
- I can recognize that the sun warms objects.
- I can recognize that the sun is a source of energy that can change the temperature.
- I can explain that temperature changes modify the state of water.

Weather Observations
Each day look outside and think about the weather. Note whether it is sunny or
cloudy? Are the clouds big or small? Is it windy? In what direction is the wind blowing?
Is it raining? Does the temperature feel hot, cold, cool or warm? What happened
yesterday? What season is it? What do you think the weather will be tomorrow? Give
us the weather report or forecast! Visit the weather journal to help make your
weather observations. When you are finished, copy and paste the journal URL onto
the discussion page. Have your learning coach help you if you need it!
