First graders study daily weather changes. In this weather and graphing lesson, 1st graders chart the daily weather for a month using stickers or weather symbols. They graph the weekly weather so that at the end of the month students...

Young scholars study weather and climate patterns using computer and Internet resources. They collect temperature information and share it with other classes via e-mail using graphs

Fifth graders brainstorm a list of ways the Earth's surface can change. As a class, they are introduced to the concepts of erosion and weathering and discover how wind and water cause changes to the surface of the Earth. To end the...

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

First graders use their knowledge of weather symbols to organize and construct a graph of the daily weather for one month. Each student have a chance to give the daily weather report using Sammy's Science House Computer Software.

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. ...

This is great go-to activity for those spring or fall days when the weather beckons your geometry class outside. Learners start with a small tree, devising strategies to accurately estimate the leaf count. They must then tackle the...

Second graders review the weather through a role-playing game.

Students observe bird feeding and complete a tally and graphing activity for their observations. In this bird graphing lesson, students work in teams to observe bird feedings. Students complete a bird reporting sheet and collect data...

Fifth graders research and plan an imaginary vacation. In this travel planning lesson, 5th graders work in pairs to use an atlas, calendar, review airplane schedules, encyclopedias, magazines, and the Internet to research information...

Students 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 location.

Fourth graders study the water cycle and clouds. In this water cycle and cloud lesson plan, 4th graders determine the definition of condensation and watch a demonstration in which the teacher makes a cloud in a bottle. They discuss the...

Fourth graders use two activities to draw four different conic sections. One activity is of a physical nature and one is traditional paper and pencil.

Young scholars compare hurricanes and tornadoes. They write a paragraph explaining how to prepare for a storm. Students give an oral report. They use weather facts to practice math skills. Young scholars record observations of a storm.

Students discover that different textured materials can absorb more heat than others. Students work with thermometers, clocks, and graphs.

Learners study hurricanes; in particular, what they look like, how they are formed, how they are categorized, how they are named, and how they are tracked. They examine the science of hurricanes as well as the mathematics of hurricanes.

Review the concept of subtracting positive and negative integers. Learners review the rules for subtracting integers, use manipulatives to visualize the process, and complete an assessment.

Second graders become aware that thermometer liquids expand or contract as temperature affects them.

Students analyze data to make hypotheses and conclusions regarding the predator/prey relationship between moon snail and surf clams.

Student read both Celsius and Fahrenheit temperatures on thermometers. They covert the temperatures and write poems to show understanding.

Third graders practice measuring skills by cutting paper strips of varying lengths. They place them on a parachute and shake it until all the paper strips fall off it. They collect the paper strips and measure them with rulers.
