Use this site to find out how humidity works and perform some activities related to humidity.

Using thermometers, students will compare differences in the temperature of various materials and locations. They will record and chart the data that was collected and present the graphs to their classmates.

Find out more about rainy days when you check out this resource, which features hands-on interactive activities, experiments, fun facts, and more.

What is wind? How is it caused? This site offers simple answers to many common questions about wind as well as a chart of the Beaufort scale, which "is an empirical measure for the intensity of the weather based mainly on wind power."

In this lab activity, students will look for evidence of erosion in river or streams. This activity should take place after students have observed erosion in a model.

Students will learn the difference between global, prevailing and local winds. In this activity, students will make a wind vane out of paper, a straw and a soda bottle and use it to measure wind direction over time. Finally, they will...

A detailed overview of the Earth's climate, with explanations about the difference between weather and climate, dendrochronology, palynology, and how Earth's climate has changed over time. All information is reinforced through pictures,...

Explains how dew point is used to show the amount of moisture in the air. Gives an activity for measuring the dew point at home.

An outdoor activity where learners visit a local stream for a scientific inquiry. They make observations about the stream, and take measurements of the stream's velocity, depth, and width. They will also develop a sediment thickness...

Young students are introduced to the complex systems of the Earth through numerous lessons on its natural resources, processes, weather, climate and landforms. Key earth science topics include rocks, soils and minerals, water and natural...

The innovative resource compares snow and ice cover in the Northern Hemisphere over a period of 24 years. The images are obtained from satellite measurements of visible and microwave radiation. The activity has an interactive online...

Hands-on project where the learner constructs a magnetometer to monitor and measure changes in earth's magnetic field. These changes can then be used to track solar storms.

Teachers will be interested to explore the SkyMath module, and the 16 classroom activities at this site. In this program, students will collect and record real-time weather data to analyze. Data analysis, graphing, number relationship,...

Simulation where learners apply mathematics and economics concepts in the lemonade business. Learners set up a virtual lemonade stand and must determine production costs, product variables, and profits. Students record data collected on...

Make your own anemometer like meteorologists use to measure the speed of wind. Includes full list of materials, procedures, and scientific explanation of what makes wind.

This is an ongoing activity where students take monthly temperature measurements, and make observations of the weather and changes in the environment, at the same location in the schoolyard each time. They will make and use an astrolabe,...

Through this field activity, students will obtain hands-on experience by measuring stream flows and observing landform and stream processes of dams once before water freezes, and again after the weather deposition has occurred. Students...

Through five lessons, students are introduced to all facets of the rock cycle. Topics include rock and mineral types, material stresses and weathering, geologic time and fossil formation, the Earth's crust and tectonic plates, and soil...

Students collect evidence to investigate erosion and deposition around the schoolyard.

Nice brief description of this wind speed device and the directions to make your own.
