Students examine weather patterns in the United States. In this weather lesson, students use a United States map to identify high and low temperatures in two states. Students compare the data and record their findings onto a chart.

Students research maps, weapons and weather from a variety of wars, then create a presentation showing the impact weather and topography has had on military operations.

Students identify measurable characteristics about the weather and explore how they are monitored. They research and propose the construction of a weather monitoring station on their school grounds.

Learners use maps and answer core curriculum questions in order to increase comprehension and practice higher order thinking skills. This helps them develop writing skills through the practice of keeping Science Journals.

Students download or create maps with numerical weather data. They add isolines and color to create regions on their maps. They explore the visual properties of color palettes and create a visualization applying their knowledge.

Climate change and weather extremes impact every species, but this lesson focuses on how these changes effect polar bears. After learning about the animal, scholars create maps of snow-ice coverage and examine the yearly variability and...

Students examine common trends in climate across the U.S. They identify the anomalies in hot-cold temperature differences in the U.S and locate them on the map using latitude and longitude coordinates.

Students construct a "A Year in Pennsylvania" poster on which they creatively describe at least three examples of how the climate they live in shapes their lives during every season of the year.

Students, after choosing two diverse cities, collect data on weather for a month and construct a graph on temperature and precipitation. After collecting population data of said cities, and graphing it, they plot population on a large...

Young scholars explore geographic changes by researching the state of Florida. In this Florida history lesson plan, students identify the storms and disasters that have created sinkholes in portions of Florida. Young scholars read the...

Learners observe and record different types of clouds. They use a cloud chart to discuss the three cloud types to see if students can identify the clouds they drew.

Students explore the characteristics of clouds, their formation, symbols used in their identification, and the relationship of clouds to weather. The instructional activity focuses on how they are formed and their classification.

Second graders study how a tsunami is formed by underwater events such as earthquakes, volcanoes or landslides. They discuss what they knew about living and non-living things in the ocean.

Students explore the physical geography of Oregon. In groups, students collect weather and elevation information on Oregon. They organize the data and create maps and graphs of the information. Afterward, students compare the...

Pupils make travelog journals to send to acquaintances in other states in order to receive mail in return. They make scrapbooks with the return mail they receive.

Discuss the people, history and geography of North Dakota using this resource. Learners use a variety of sources to do research on North Dakota and present their findings in a PowerPoint presentation. They answer questions involving...

Young scholars examine the relationship between altitude, atmospheric pressure, temperature and humidity at a particular location. They practice science and math in real world applications. They write reports detailing their scientific...

Young scholars complete activities that lead to greater understanding of the variety of natural disasters that occur all over the world.

Middle schoolers create graphs using NASA data, compare ozone levels of several U.S. cities, analyze and evaluate the data and predict trends based on the data, and discuss and describe how human activities have modified Earth's air...

Third graders complete activities to become familiar with the content and vocabulary related to biomes and ecosystems in order to mainstream into the classroom.
