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

Learners make a wind vane, anemometer, wind spiral, and wind streamer to calculate wind movement. In this wind lesson plan, students test each of their wind instruments, and graph the results of the wind speed in different locations.

Students discover the power of wind by flying a glider.  In this weather lesson, students describe their thoughts on wind and practice using weather related vocabulary.  Students construct model gliders in class and attempt to...

Fourth graders analyze how summer and winter storms are different. In this weather lesson, 4th graders construct a winter storm simulation box and a summer storm bottle and record the temperature and barometer readings. The directions to...

Students create their own daily log books for recording and keeping track of the weather.

Students work in groups to make an instrument the Meteorologists use to measure the speed of the wind after the teacher reads them a poem about the wind. Students then review vocabulary that they studied from their activity.

Young scholars participate in an hands-on construction of an instrument to measure wind speed.

Students watch the weather. In this science observation lesson, students collect data regarding the local weather and create their own weather forecasting video.
