Meteorology (Condensation)

Students analyze the impact of climate variability and change utilizing a broad span of topics over a wide range of grade levels. This three lesson plan unit is easily adapted for the various instructional levels listed.

Students explore clouds.  In this weather lesson, students identify the steps in the water cycle, define condensation and evaporation, and relate this information to cloud formation.  Students perform a cloud experiment, predict weather...

Students predict the amount of snowfall for the week and measure snowfall.  In this measuring snowfall lesson, student use a precipitation gauge to measure the week's snowfall; and analyze the data to determine whether or not...

As a way to combine language arts and science, try this instructional activity on writing cloud poetry. Begin by showing a PowerPoint presentation and images of cloud types. Take meteorology masters outdoors to explore the sky using the...

Students study weather patterns and condensation. In this water cycle lesson, students watch as their teacher completes a condensation activity. Students fill out a map to brainstorm about rain. Students make a rain gauge to measure rain...

Students recognize and observe weather phenomena. In this four part weather lesson, students are introduced to weather symbols through a story, then use a thermometer to measure water temperature. Next, students observe the formation of...

Second graders investigate changing weather. In this weather lesson, 2nd graders observe day to day weather and watch for patterns that repeat in weather. Students compare and describe weather patterns.

Young scholars investigate the water cycle. In this water cycle science lesson plan, students participate in a series of activities that demonstrate evaporation, precipitation, and condensation.  Young scholars describe their...

The 3 steps of the water cycle, evaporation, condensation, and precipitation, are the focus of this activity. After a neat demonstration of rain using hot water, a pie tin, and ice cubes, young scientists observe and discuss the elements...
