Noaa: National Weather Service: Wind Chill Temperature Index

Students identify basic weather instruments and how they are used to record weather data. Students define several vocabulary terms as stated in lesson. Students use basic instruments to record weather data in their area. Students use the...

Bring the sun to your class! Young scholars analyze actual solar wind data in the second lesson of a five-part series. Their analysis includes speed, temperature, and density data.

What can we learn from the data? Young scholars analyze actual solar data to answer specific questions. The activity presents an opportunity for an open-ended investigation of the data to conclude a five-part series on solar winds.

Explore the effect of the combination of temperature and wind speed on human comfort. Use a formula to compute the Fahrenheit wind chill for a specific wind speed on a specific temperature.

The wind chill is a measure of what it "feels like" when the weather is cold. The number is not made up--it's a mathematical formula. This video explains the formula and goes through an example of how to calculate the wind chill. [3:08]

With this science fair project measure the effect of wind speed on how quickly an object cools. The Science Buddies project ideas are set up consistently beginning with an abstract, objective, and introduction, followed by a section on...

Why do windy winter days seem so bitterly cold? Calculate the wind chill factor and find out.

High schoolers develop three mathematical models regarding wind-chill, and examine the variation of wind-chill on a ground level weather map.

This resource provides historic information on length measurement in the United Kingdom. Click on the topics on the left toolbar of the article to find out more information.

Learners collect data on the weather, graph and analyze it. In this algebra lesson plan, students interpret maps and are able to better plan their days based on the weather reading. They make predictions based on the type of clouds they...
