Sizing Up Hail
Learners participate in an estimation and measurement activity to improve their estimates of the size of hail. They hold several different sized wooden balls and record their guesses of the ball's diameters. They compare their estimates.
Curated OER
Thunderstorms and Lightning
Middle schoolers, in groups, investigate and demonstrate the science behind the development of lightning and thunderstorms.
Curated OER
Making Layered Hail Stones
Students explore how hail forms in the atmosphere, why hailstones are layered, and what accretion is. They also learn what supercooled liquids are.
Curated OER
Compare and Contrast
Young scholars learn about similarities and differences between different types of weather patterns. In this weather lesson, students read Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and Weather. Young scholars create a word search puzzle,...

WATER HERE AND THERE
Introduce the topic of water conservation with a little drama. Dressed as snowflakes, hail stones, or rain drops class members dramatize the events in a narration of the water cycle. The series of lessons that follow focus on...
Curated OER
Updrafts in Action
Students examine how wind can suspend rain and hail in clouds. They focus on safety precautions they can take to protect them from the hazards of thunderstorms.

Forecasting Weather
In this weather instructional activity, students conduct an experiment where they record the weather observations for a week. Then they determine the air pressure using an aneroid barometer and estimate the amount of sky covered by...
Curated OER
Dangerous Atmosphere
Students discuss dangerous weather. In this science lesson plan, students decide on which state they want to research and check the Internet for the dangerous weather in that state. Students determine which weather hazard was the most...

Weather through the Seasons
Students examine the year's cycles by observing the four seasons, their distinctive weather patterns that affect our activities and the weather changes that each brings. The fourteen lessons of this unit offer a good opportunity for the...
Curated OER
Meteorite Musters
In this science worksheet, students conduct an experiment to collect small particles that come down in the rain or hail that are left over meteorites.
Curated OER
The Weather
Fourth graders investigate how weather conditions and phenomena occur and how they can be predicted. They complete an internet search. Students create a weather fact sheet over a selected weather phenomenon.
Curated OER
Research a Severe Weather Pattern of Interest
Students select a severe weather pattern of interest (tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, lightning, hail, and thunderstorms) and research these patterns to collect data for a report they write in the next lesson plan.
Curated OER
Hail Stone Impact
Sixth graders study the formation of convective storms and test mock hailstones. they graph and analyze collected data.
