Tornado
Students study the classification system of tornadoes. In this tornado lesson plan students make their own tornadoes in different mediums.
Curated OER
Using the Synoptic Code for the Prediction of Water
Students construct a thermoscreen for the experiment. For this earth science lesson, students make observations and interpret them using synoptic codes. They predict the weather based on gathered information.
Curated OER
Damage Control
Students investigate artificially elevated regions or cities around the world to compare histories, cultures, and strategies related to potential flooding disaster.
Curated OER
Building A Topographic Model
Students visualize, in three dimensions, features represented by contour lines on a topographic map. They see that the different elevations shown on a two dimensional topographic map can be used to build a 3-D model.
Curated OER
Learning Lesson: How To Make A Rain Gauge
Learners discover that rainfall amounts are rarely uniform which means the amount of rain is different from location to location. They construct their own rain gauge using everyday materials.
Curated OER
Antarctica
Learners explore why Antarctica is so important to the planet. They investigate the physical characteristics. Students create their own unique treaty of governance for Antarctica and discuss how laws are enforced in Antarctica.
Curated OER
The Beaufort Scale: A Local Model
Learners study the Beaufort Scale and use it to study wind in their community. For this wind study lesson, students watch a DVD about climate change and learn about the Beaufort Scale. Learners complete a worksheet for the topic.
