Weathering is not necessarily a result of the weather. Scholars conduct an experiment to explore the effect of surface area and volume on the weathering process. They create their own sugar cube rocks using the same number of cubes—but...

Students investigate the weather by reading children stories.  In this weather observation lesson, students read Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and several other stories about weather before they create a KWL chart....

Learners explore Earth science by participating in a weather identification activity. For this scientific instrument lesson, students identify several weather related tools such as the weather vane, thermometer and rain gauge. Learners...

Fourth graders complete multi-curricular activities for weather. In this weather lesson, 4th graders complete creative writing, research, and weather data analysis activities for the lesson.

Students study the different types of weather, how it affect what they wear, and how it is related to the seasons. They compare the seasons and tell how they prepare for the change in seasons. They design a creative presentation about...

Students chart temperatures in Egypt on spreadsheet to determine how weather conditions affect lifestyles.

Students investigate how weather affects how plants grow. They collect data on weather and plant growth for a week and display the data on a graph. For a culminating experience they design a movie using software that shows plant growth...

First graders go on a water walk, collect weather data, and measure rainfall for a month. They examine the water cycle in this series of lessons.

Students observe weather daily for at least a month and graph the weather for one month. Then they use weather vocabulary such as sunny, windy, rainy, stormy, cold, snowy, foggy, and hot, and share their predictions about weather. ...

In this nature of science and measurement worksheet, students answer 30 questions about experimental design, pure science vs. applied science, density, metric conversions and dimensional analysis.

Students explore and experience information about temperature changes by using crickets' chirps to calculate the temperature. The data is applied to formula and the temperatures are calculated.

Fourth graders observe, measure, and record data on the basic elements of weather over a period of time (i.e., precipitation, air temperature, wind speed and direction, and air pressure). Then, they make a barometer and keep record of...

Students explore basic Excel spreadsheets.  In this spreadsheet lesson plan, students enter Alaska weather information and  perform calculations. Students title the columns on the spreadsheet and format the cells. ...

Students explore the different arrangement of air molecules in high and low air pressure masses. They compare the temperature of high and low pressure masses and discover how a barometer works.

Middle schoolers monitor local surface weather conditions for at least 30 days. They interpret the data by graphing it and detemining percentages.

Students select at least 6 cities from around the world to keep track of their high and low temperatures over a period of time.

Students document the weather. In this seasons lesson plan, students study the weather, record the temperature outside and photograph what the weather conditions look like. All information gathered by the students will be made into a book.

Students research the concept of predicting the weather. The research focuses on how some weather facts intuitively make sense. Students answer key questions based upon the mathematical concept of covariance.

Learners examine what happens when air temperature drops and gets closer to the dewpoint. They perform a lab activity which illustrates the effects on humidity, precipitation and barometric air pressure.

Move on into trigonometry. An informative eBook takes the content of a College Algebra course and adds more relating to trigonometry and trigonometric functions. The content organization allows pupils to build upon their learning by...

Students construct a barometer and collect data on the changes in air pressure. They work is small groups using plastic tubing, corks, and green food coloring. They then use a formula to convert inches of mercury to barometric pressure...

High schoolers compare real-time Earth and Mars measurements for temperature, wind speed, humidity and atmospheric pressure by accessing Internet-data resources from NASA. They access real-time weather data and maps for their school...

Students measure the flight of a gilder. In this fight of angles lesson, students explore the flight of a glider and measure the distance flown. They collect statistical data of the flights and determine the slope of each flight. ...

Third graders create a model of the solar system. In this solar system lesson, 3rd graders create a scale model of the solar system. Working in pairs students solve mathematical problems to correctly measure the distance each planet is...
