Pupils interpret maps and graph data related to volcanic ash. Then they analyze the importance of wind speed and the dangers of the ash to both life, air temperature, and technology. 

Students collect and graph data. In this algebra lesson, students investigate speed and distance and their application in the real world. They relate concepts of algebra and geometry as it relates to distance, vectors and speed.

What is the difference between weather and climate? This is the focus question of a lesson plan that takes a deeper look at how weather data helps determine climate in a region. Using weather and climate cards, learners decide...

Young scholars use given information on wind speed with the quadratic formula to determine the pressure of the wind on a building. In this quadratic equations lesson, students compute the pressure of the wind from two data tables. They...

Students drill and practice putting problems into vector form. They draw each problem before trying to solve them. Students draw arrows for any vector quantities to indicate magnitude and direction.

Students simulate the motion of a fly ball with different winds. They use a partner to provide the simulated wind. Students draw a baseball diamond and the field on a piece of paper. They drag the pen across the paper to show the path of...

Fourth graders examine weather data for Columbus, Ohio using an Internet resource. They complete a two day and a weekly weather charts before discussing the information. After the discussion, they answer questions about the charts...

Students investigate quadratic functions.  In this Algebra I/Algebra II instructional activity, students determine the equation of a quadratic function that closely matches a set of points.  Students investigate the necessary...
