Curated OER
Understanding Cloud Formation
Students explore air and clouds by watching demonstration. They perform an experiment to measure air pressure changes.
Curated OER
Data Shuffle
Middle schoolers find an advertisement or newspaper using charts or graphs. They create another graph using the same information in a different format. They write a comparison of the two graphs.
Curated OER
Twisters
Learners differentiate between the terms 'tornado watch' and 'tornado warning' and simulate the conditions that produce tornadoes. They read "Night of the Twisters" by Ivy Ruckman and conduct an experiment using two-liter plastic...
Curated OER
Cloud Shadows
Students classify clouds as transparent, translucent or opaque. They conduct an experiment to determine the visual opacity of several classroom objects and then conduct further observations of clouds.
Curated OER
Graphing Data - Temperature
Seventh graders measure and record temperature over a given time period. They compare the recorded temperatures to the 40-year recorded normal average temperatures for the same area. Students display and interpret their findings in a graph.
Curated OER
TE Lesson: Caught in the Net
Students student the concept of bycatch, the act of unintentionally catching certain living creatures using fishing equipment. They determine the difference between bycatch and target creatures. They discover what species become bycatch...
Curated OER
Understanding Cloud Formation
Students read and relate the poem, "Clouds" by Aileen Fisher to a demonstration on cloud formation. They create clouds in jars using ice water and matches then discuss the ways clouds can be used to predict weather.
