Students check the weather on the web site, draw what they see on the calendar (sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy) and look outside to see if they think the weather on the web site is correct.

Students identify the job of a meteorologist. In this meteorologist lesson, students read Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and view clips of weather forecasts. Students visit the Weather Channel website and sing a weather song. Students...

In this decision making activity, students complete 5 problems in which clues to the daily weather are read and appropriate clothing is chosen. Temperatures are in degrees Fahrenheit.

In this weather worksheet, students unscramble poems about weather patterns which were used before modern technology aided meteorologists. They use the pictures as clues.

Students complete a weather report chart after studying weather patterns for a period of time. For this weather report lesson, students measure temperature, precipitation, cloud cover, wind speed, and wind direction for a month. Students...

Students explore the concepts of weather. They investigate lightening formation, construct weather maps and evaluate weather monitoring equipment. Students examine careers related to meteorology.

Young scholars study weather forecasting. In this weather lesson, students explore forecasting weather methods and do a forecast. Young scholars study weather reports and discuss the elements of a forecast. Students study the method of...

Learners observe a daily paper to see the temperature forecast looking at a paper thermometer with today's predicted temperature colored in. They predict today's temperature, and paste the second color on the same thermometer to show...

Fourth graders measure wind speed, air pressure, humidity, temperature, and wind direction. They compare their observations with those of actual weather forecasts.

Fifth graders explore weather forecasting. For a week, 5th graders observe weekly weather forcasts on different television channels. They predict which station is more accurate with their predictions. Students record and chart...

Using a simulated air sample, environmental or earth science pupils examine the components. You will need to prepare the faux air by using a hole punch and various colors of construction paper. Each color will represent a different...

Students recognize the elements of an analog weather forecast.  In this weather forecasting lesson, students use a website and look for trends, persistence and climatology in weather forecasting.  Students complete a...

Students are introduced to the concept of specific heat. In groups, they are given a set of data showing the temperatures of air and soil samples in which they calculate the ranges of the data. They identify whether the air or soil...

In this mean, median, mode, and range learning exercise, 6th graders complete multiple choice questions about the mean, median, and mode of temperature data. Students complete 15 problems.

Students make weather predictions using the climatology method. In this climatology lesson, students review using trends and persistence when forecasting weather. Students discuss the climatology method for forecasting and complete the...

Students explain the process of evaporation using an activity that allows students to see the gradual disappearance of water.

Students are introduced to wind and wind movement by observing, predicting, and experimenting with simple materials.

Students are introduced to drag. Then they summarize drag by saying that the drag is proportional to the square of the velocity. Students then solve problems an example of such a problem: Explain why swimming underwater is faster than...
