Global Change — Change and Cycles Where Land, Air and Water Meet
Learners participate in an experiment to define a parts-per-billion solution. In this ecology lesson plan, students select a second substance to create a parts-per-billion solution and observe and record their results. Learners work in...
Curated OER
Weather Art in Space Settlements
Students demonstrate a cloud formation and the relation between pressure and temperature in gases. They explain how clouds could be created in space settlements and see the relation between pressure and temperature in gases.
Curated OER
You Can Be A Woman Meteorologist
Students complete four activities that are about meteorology. The first activity is for them to explore weather maps. The second activity is for students to discover high-pressure and low-pressure air. The third activity is for them to...

(S-1A) Weather and the Atmosphere
Learners discuss the way vertical convection transports heat from the surface upwards, and associated pressure and temperature profiles of the atmosphere.
Curated OER
Heat Misconceptions
Third graders determine that gloves do not provide heat, but rather, they insulate or hold in any heat that is in their hand. They discuss the different temperatures found in ecosystems around the world. What do animals that live in...
Curated OER
Moisture Advection
Students analyze meteorological data and arrive at conclusions using animations of dewpoint temperatures and winds. They view an animation and determine the preferred location(s), if any, for the advection of moisture into the state....
