I would be remiss not to mention that today is the 20th anniversary of terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. I remember it like it was yesterday, part of what I remember is that the weather was strinkingly similar to today's weather. For all of our students 9/11 is now a history lesson. For ideas on teaching about the events of September 11, 2001, take a look at the list of resources Larry Ferlazzo has put together.

The map displays a week-by-week prediction of when leaves in the continental United States will be changing colors from now through the end of November. You can see the predictions change by moving the timeline at the bottom of the map. On the same page as the 2021 Fall Foliage Prediction Map there is a graph of average temperatures in the United States since 1900. The graph is accompanied by a short explanation of why leaves change colors in the fall and the relationship to air temperatures. Applications for Education The 2021 Fall Foliage Prediction Map doesn't tell the whole story of why leaves change colors at different times in different parts of the country. I'd use the incomplete nature of the map's explanation as a jumping-off point for students to hypothesize and investigate why leaves change colors at different times in different parts of the country. I might also have them investigate why some trees have brighter leaves than others in the fall.  Additional Resources for Teaching and Learning About Fall Foliage Ten days ago I shared a handful of videos that explain why leaves change colors in the fall. A couple of those videos are included below.   For an explanation of why leaves change colors that elementary school students can understand, watch the following SciShow Kids video.       • Email to a friend • More Recent Articles Save Google Forms Responses in Progress US News Map - A Great Way to Explore Newspaper Archives C-SPAN's StudentCam Contest is Back 700+ Free Typing Games for Kids Create, Reflect, Outline, Create - A Video Creation Process
