For nature work in Miss Dickinson's room, Starr school has a weather chart. Some one is appointed to look after it every day.. Each morning some child tells from which way the wind is blowing, and the temperature, and at noon some one else tells the temperature; and it is the same way after school.

think that will be lots of tun. i By
