In this science worksheet, students find the possible answers to the questions of weather forecasting. The four scenarios are given for the possible answers.

Young scholars conduct an experiment.  In this salinity activity, students learn about sea ice, why it is important and how changing amounts can affect the sea.  Young scholars conduct an experiment to find out the effects of...

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...

A slide show serves as the backdrop for a lesson on the moisture in Earth's atmosphere. Through it, mini meteorologists learn about the attributes of the atmosphere and actually use data-collecting weather tools to make observations and...

Earth science explorers design an experiment to demonstrate that the albedo of a surface affects its temperature. They test to find out if moisture on the surface affects temperature. They discover whether or not concrete or asphalt heat...

Middle schoolers investigate the relationship of the steps in the water cycle, and create a simulation of the water cycle in a jar.

Desert regions are hotter for multiple reasons; the lack of vegetation causes the sun's heat to go straight into the surface and the lack of moisture means none of the heat is being transferred into evaporation. This concept, and other...

Learners observe which of ten types of clouds are visible and how much of the sky is cloud covered. They see that by observing clouds, we can get information about temperature, moisture, and wind conditions in different places in the...

Young scholars analyze meteorological data and arrive at conclusions using animations of dewpoint temperatures and winds. They view an animation and determine the preferred location(s), if any, for the advection of moisture into the...

In this science worksheet, learners study weather prediction by reading and completing activities in this 8 page newsletter. Students classify clouds, study weather prediction instruments, learn weather proverbs and signs and learn to...

Second graders record and summarize daily weather observations for a week in the form of a bar graph. They cut and glue a weather symbol for each day, record it on the graph, and answer discussion questions.

Second graders make daily weather observations, record them with appropriate stickers on a chart, and then summarize them at the end of the week in the form of a bar graph.

Second graders participate in a three part lesson in which they identify and describe forms of moisture in the environment. Part one of the lesson involves the three stages of the water cycle, part two focuses on creating humidity by...

In this science worksheet, 3rd graders will focus on the weather. Students will respond to eight multiple choice and fill in the blank questions about various aspects pertaining to our weather.

Fourth graders analyze how summer and winter storms are different. For this weather lesson, 4th graders construct a winter storm simulation box and a summer storm bottle and record the temperature and barometer readings. The directions...

Fourth graders use glyphs as a way to visually represent information about Utah weather. These nonverbal representations help students collect and interpret data in a visual format.

In this erosion deposition worksheet, students fill in 36 blanks to complete sentences about the formation of soil, the forces of erosion, physical and chemical weathering, sediments and soil deposition.

In this weather worksheet, 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 clouds. Students...

Can an area with no soil turn into a forest? Scholars learn about the process of ecological succession using an interesting presentation. It covers both primary and secondary succession in the building of new ecosystems.

In this weather worksheet, students are given 13 statements about temperature, condensation, saturation, water vapor, humidity and snow. Students find the terms in a word search and fill in the blanks of the sentences.

Fourth graders investigate the concepts of looking at sets of data. The focus of the study is upon the local weather of Utah. They study the weather found in the city and in the country and make comparisons based upon geographical location.

Equip young campers with important survival knowledge with a set of engaging lessons. Teammates work together to complete three outdoor activities, which include building a shelter, starting a campfire, and finding directions in the...

Understanding the ways a fire will act is a key factor in fire safety and fire prevention. Young campers focus on how the weather and terrain can affect the behavior of a fire with topographic maps and different...

What better way to learn about ecosystems than by getting outside and observing them first hand? Accompanying a field trip to a local park or outdoor space, this series of collaborative activities engages children in...
