   WeatherBug Achieve lessons and tools enable Washington teachers to design lessons and activities using the interesting and relevant themes of weather as a window of opportunity to explore concepts in all subject areas. Live data engages student interest while tables, maps and graphs provide the foundation that connects the concepts and processes that enhance learning in all subject areas.  WeatherBug Achieve aligns well with the Washington Essential Academic Learning Requirements in Math and Science and defines learning through observation, analysis and interpretation, problem solving, critical thinking and justification of conclusions and methodology. These key processes operate across WeatherBug Achieve in Math and Science to provide all classrooms through grade 4 with the tools to enhance learning and boost student achievement. The use of technology in the classroom has been shown to be beneficial to students at these levels.       Benchmarks 1, 2, 3  Science WeatherBug Achieve Standards Correlation Washington Essential Academic Learning Requirements
