The device started providing temperature, precipitation and other data online earlier this month; teachers will incorporate the tool into their curriculum.
Anderson Middle School educators have a new tool in their repertoire: The building has been fitted with a weather station that tracks environmental data such as temperature and precipitation. "Anderson is working to develop curriculum to utilize Weather Bug data," according to a Berkley School District press release. "The AMS weather bug was funded through shared time school partnerships with the Berkley School District." The station went online earlier this month.
