Air Masses & Fronts
Students identify two distinct air masses and the frontal boundary and determine whether the front is moving in time and in what direction the front is moving.
Curated OER
Air Masses & Fronts
Students use a set of maps depicting a front passing through the state to identify two distinct air masses and the frontal boundary. They then deterine whether the front is moving in time and in what direction the front is moving.

Air, It's Really There
Love is in the air? Wrong — nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide are in the air. The final lesson in the series of five covers the impact of temperature on gases. Scholars view a demonstration of gas as a type of matter before performing...
Curated OER
Air Masses
Middle schoolers examine the physical characteristics of several types of air masses to discover how air masses can be identified and defined by their temperature and moisture content.
Curated OER
What is Air?
Learners investigate air by participating in a class experiment. In this matter measurement lesson, students identify air as a gas which consists of mass. Learners utilize a windsock or balloon to measure oxygen and explore it's true...
Curated OER
Air Is Matter
Students explore the concept of air. In this air lesson, students examine the attributes of air and study the pressure that air exerts as they observe a scientific demonstration and view 2 video links.
