This was a very fun interactive article. I really enjoyed learning about how meteorologists record and predict the weather. The only problem I had with the game was that it was pretty easy to me. I also liked how this game taught a little bit of geography when it showed the different areas including Ohio and Florida. I learned a lot including the effects of cold fronts and warm fronts as well as low pressure and high pressure. I have always liked the weather and find the weather page on the USA Today, that is why it caught my eye. This was really interesting, but if I were EdHeads, I would have made it a little harder.
I thought this wasn't very good, as an example. I thought if the cold front hadn't touched Springfield, it wouldn't affect the weather. Although, it wasn't near, but according to the example, it made it colder. Like Anthony, I usually seek out the Weather page, look at what they have for today, and they are usually correct. Overall, I thought that it was okay, but not as good as other EdHeads projects.
This was interesting, but very easy. I wonder if there are any other techniques used when predicting weather... It was cool anyway. I would have made it harder or looked for a better example of prediction of weather.
Sorry, I didn't finish. I agree with Cooper that it wasn't as good or fun as the other Ed-Heads projects, but it was okay. I would have liked it to be harder though.
I agree with Cooper and Camillle and Sinclaire and Alex M. and Esther. The predict-o-matic was very boring, and the other one didn't make sense either. Overall, I don't think this was a very interesting post.
This was a really interesting interactive game. I loved learning how meteorologists guess what the weather is going to be like. I learned a lot about warm fronts and cold fronts. Overall, this game was pretty easy. I would have definitely made it harder. I enjoyed this one more than the forensic science one.
This game was easy, but now I know how meteorologists can predict the weather. Math is everywhere in this world, even weather. Sometimes it is easy math sometimes not. Being a meteorologists is something that is not on my list for a job. I am glad people do it though. For example, yesterday I would have worn a jacket but the weather said it would be sunny so I did not wear a jacket.
I did not like this game but it did teach me something. I thought that a warm front would cause droughts, not rain, but here it said that they caused rain. Overall i think this game might be suitable for room oners. On the prediction page all you had to do was be able to read. This game was very boring and not up to the Edheads standard.
From this game, I learned that you have to use math to be a meteorologist. Like others have said, this game was not one of the fun intereactive game, but it was very informative.
I didn't really think that this game was very fun and educational. If you got the predictions wrong, they didn't explain when you went wrong, and that just made me more confused, causing myself to have wrong predictions for the future days. I didn't like this game.
I have always wondered how the weather is exactly predicted. This game is fun, but gives almost no information on how they predict and report the weather. The prediction section of this game was very weird, boring, and easy. I don't think I have played any other EdHead games, so I can't compare. Like Sinclaire, I'm also wondering if there are any other techniques to predict the weather. I think it would be boring to be a meteorologist, but I'm glad they're out there. Thank you for the article!
This game was fun for the first minute of each section. They just kept saying the same thing every single step. It got so easy and boring that I just stopped. It was interesting to learn about how the weather is predicted and what symbols are used, but how they presented the information was not a very good way to do so. I never want to be a meteorologist, but it was interesting to see how they predict weather.
This game was a little boring. There have been more interesting EdHeads games that have made me learn a lot more. I did learn about meteoroligists but not much. I agree with Sinclaire because I wonder if there are other ways of predicting weather.
I learned absolutely nothing from the reporting the weather section, and the level 1 for predicting the weather also didn't really teach me anything, but level 3 for predicting the weather did teach me a little bit about warm fronts, cold fronts, low pressure, and high pressure. But even though it says, for example, a little bit about how to read the symbol that represents the speed of the wind, it does not say anything about how they even got the symbol with the wind speed. I assume that however they measure the wind speed, the method gives them the speed in symbol-form, but it doesn't say what this method is or how it works. Also, like Ava said, if you get one of the predictions wrong, it doesn't even tell you what the correct prediction is, let alone why the correct prediction is correct. As many people have said, this game was kind of boring, but I think that they were just trying to keep it simple. It said that it was for grades 4-9, but I strongly disagree with that grade range.
I agree with Cooper, Camille, Sinclaire, Alex M., Esther, Luca, Robert and Alex G. This was a really boring game. I am starting to think that Ms. G puts to many EdHead projects/activites/games.
This activity wasn't educational but I did learn a thing or two. I had no idea that a warm front could make rain and thunderstorms. It would have been better if they had explained why that was. It didn't even say what high and low pressure systems were. It was weird that when the temperature could be anywhere from 30 to 35 degrees, they would just say 33 degrees.
I'm agree with Cooper and Camille. I found this a bit boring. I did learn a thing or two though about meteorologists' job. It is harder than I thought it would be. That I know for sure.
I think that this game was extremely easy, and I think it doesn't describe a meteorologist's job very well. Predicting the weather is much more complicated than looking a the "predictamatic" (was that what it was called?).
This game was very easy to play. I did find it interesting to learn how meteorologists predict weather. Many of the other Ed heads projects were much more fun and interesting.

THis was very boring to me. Sorry. I have to agree wuith Cooper.

This is a very weird game. And a lot of the game was very boring. I agree with Cooper and Camille

This game is really boring. It is kind of useless unless you want to be a weather person.

Actually, now that I think about it and play it again, the two were a tie.
