This week I'd like to do fewer videos and more reading and hands on. We've already talked about clouds somewhat, so the first order of business is to set up our own weather station. We will make our own instruments. I think the kids will learn more by reading the instruments themselves rather than getting all the information off the web. Here is our schedule.
Monday: Pages 157-161 on clouds. Make barometer and rain gauge.
Tuesday: pp 161-165 Earth's thermal energy.
Wednesday: 165-171 Latitude/Longitude, wind patterns Make weather vane
Thursday:171-176 Air Masses
Friday: Study questions
Resources
Blank weather chart
vocabulary
make your own weather instruments
US wind map
Estimate the wind speed without an anemomeeter
A blank weather chart I created. Enough space for 2 weeks
Latitude and Longitude game
Global Wind Pattern visualization
Six Major Wind Belts
Air Masses
