Students analyze real-time surface weather maps to identify air masses, pressure systems, and fronts. They learn to predict weather patterns, developing essential meteorology skills.
Engage students with Google Earth! They will explore Earth's stunning geologic formations by typing coordinates and searching, building essential latitude and longitude skills for global discovery.
Students explore topographic maps in a lab, learning contour lines, elevation, and quadrants. They analyze maps, discovering their real-world importance in Earth Science.
Students research six Yellowstone water features, like geysers and hot springs. They learn by gathering facts and images, creating a presentation to share their findings.
Engage students to locate surface water landforms such as meanders, deltas, and floodplains using Google Earth. They will visualize vocabulary and master geo-coordinates.
Engage students to design an experiment investigating how surface area impacts physical weathering. They use Alka-Seltzer to model rocks, developing hypotheses and drawing conclusions on weathering rates.
Students will learn relative dating methods by solving puzzles and numbering rock strata. They'll define superposition, index fossils, cross-cutting, and unconformities for geological sequencing practice.
Students explore relative humidity and dew point, using psychrometers and calculators. They conduct experiments, formulate hypotheses, and discuss humidity's impact, comparing different measurement methods.
