Fun Introduction and Review of How Water Is Formed

Following a step-by-step procedure, students mark, label, and rotate the Earth to illustrate and answer questions on solar intensity, rotation, and revolution, and angles of radiation.

Observe the sky and identify various cloud types with this simple device.

Chart and analyze atmospheric measurements.

Science teacher Michael Calhoun developed this activity to help students explore the difficulty of predicting the advance of a developing hurricane.

The NYS investigations kits have been tested by local NYS teachers to make sure they work in the classroom.

In this inquiry-based learning case, students are on a high mountain climbing adventure and need to know what weather is in store for them, building a simple device in the process to help them predict the weather.

A Helpful Addition to Meteorology Lessons
