Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs
Second graders explore weather. In this weather lesson, 2nd graders read Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs and participate in four supplemental science activities. Students participate in Internet research, create weather maps,...
Texas Instruments
Measuring Air Pressure Lab
Your class can investigate the weather through an experiment. In this chemistry instructional activity, learners collect data on air pressure and relate it to the weather. They collect data with the TI containing a barometer probe.
Curated OER
The Heat Is On!
Students research severe weather conditions common to their geographic location and create weather emergency guides. They, in groups, develop guides for extreme weather conditions such as heat waves, tornadoes, floods, and storms.
Curated OER
Cloud Watcher
Students predict weather by watching the clouds, and identify different types of clouds.
Curated OER
Analysis of Atmospheric Conditions for a High Mountain Retreat
Students examine the relationship between altitude, atmospheric pressure, temperature and humidity at a particular location. They practice science and math in real world applications. They write reports detailing their scientific...
Curated OER
Hot n' Cold
Students keep a weather log. For this weather and temperature lesson, students discuss the information that can be obtained from a map and lead into a discussion about temperature. Students watch a video about temperature and...
Curated OER
Freezing Cracks
Fourth graders examine how weather events cause weathering of the Earth's surface and how freezing water creates cracks and broken rocks over time. They observe what happens when a jar full of water is frozen overnight, and record their...
Curated OER
Landforms in a Tub
Fifth graders use common household items to build landforms and simulate weathering and erosion.
Curated OER
Modeling the Rock Cycle
In this modeling the rock cycle worksheet, students use a sugar cube to show the phases and changes in the rock cycle as represented by the changes in the sugar cube. For each step of the experiment students indicate the part of the rock...
Curated OER
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
Learners read about weather and create a computer log about weather. In this Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs lesson, students listen to the story and discuss different weather patterns. Learners develop a list of weather...
Curated OER
Compare and Contrast
Students learn about similarities and differences between different types of weather patterns. For this weather lesson, students read Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and Weather. Students create a word search puzzle,...
Curated OER
Hey You, Get Off My Cloud
Second graders identify different types of clouds. In this cloud lesson, 2nd graders describe clouds as cumulus, cirrus, or stratus and explain their formation. They discuss how the clouds affect the weather conditions.
Curated OER
Going Local with Global Warming
Students examine climate change by using recent temperature records. In this data analysis lesson students plot weather data and study the differences between weather and climate.
Curated OER
Clouds
Second graders explain what a cloud is, how it is formed and what the various types of clouds are. They do an experiment which shows them how to "make" a cloud, and write in their science journals about a "crazy weather day."
Curated OER
Data Analysis and Measurement: Ahead, Above the Clouds
Students explore and discuss hurricanes, and examine how meteorologists, weather officers, and NASA researchers use measurement and data analysis to predict severe weather. They plot points on coordinate map, classify hurricanes...
Curated OER
What is a Cloud?
Students identify what clouds are made of. In this weather science lesson, students look at clouds outside the window and draw what they see in their journals. Students read the book It Looked Like Spilled Milk and identify what clouds...
Curated OER
Who Has Seen the Wind?
Students investigate the characteristics of wind. In this weather lesson, students use poetry and van Gogh's paintings to discuss the movement of wind. Students are introduced to the Beaufort Scale and use the tool to measure the wind...
