Today's Temperature
Students study freezing temperatures and practice taking temperature readings with a thermometer. They write about a personal experience with weather. They discuss that the freezing point is at 32?? and that any water outside will...
Curated OER
Cool Times with Heat
Learners work with thermometers to complete problems about temperature. They investigate cooling patterns, how location affects temperature, and what happens when water having different temperature is mixed. They measure temperature in...
Curated OER
Specific Heat and Insulation
Learners measure the air and soil temperatures at designated times. They graph the temperatures of each on one piece of graph paper with different colors. Students compare the information for the two line plots and analyze their results...
Curated OER
Exploring Literature and Weather through Chirps
Students explore and experience information about temperature changes by using crickets' chirps to calculate the temperature. The data is applied to formula and the temperatures are calculated.
Curated OER
Wind Chill
In this temperature instructional activity, 3rd graders study and analyze a table containing different temperatures associated with different wind speeds and answer 4 fill in the blank answers and 2 multiple choice questions.
