IE

In Marama we are doing individual Impact projects that we get to choose ourselves. We choose something we are curious about.

I chose the topic of presenting, predicting and recording weather.
We starting deciding our ideas with our Generating Ideas doc that we had to fill in. We had to put in things we enjoy, things we do in our spare time, and things that we might like to do our IE on.
The next doc we had was our Seek Approval doc. We had to choose our topics and think of questions we would like to ask about our topics. We then had to make some refined questions, which would be the main part of our projects. We then have to decide what we are going to create with our project, how we are going to share our project, and what experts we might contact to help us.
After we do that, and have received our Stamp Of Approval, we are all good to go so we can start our next doc, simply named IE Doc. This is as far as anyone has got so far, and it is the main doc for our IE project. It is where we write down our refined questions, and try to find the answer!

My Questions:

Who records weather in New Zealand and how do they record it?
How does weather.com's prediction compare to the actual weather in Ngatea?
What skills would I need to predict the weather?
How is a weather graph made and how could I make one myself?
What skills do a weather presenter need?
How could I present my own weather prediction?

Some of these questions are very hard to answer. But I will persevere and find the answers!
