In this video, students learn that weather conditions are influenced by global weather patterns. When the Earth's air masses run into each other, the place where they meet is called a front. Fronts are responsible for all kinds of weather like snow.
In this video, students learn that changes in air pressure causes wind. The Earth's rotation also helps. Students explore how wind direction and speed affect global patterns and influence weather.
In this video, students learn that the water cycle is the constant movement of water through the Earth and its atmosphere. Water on the ground evaporates, becoming water vapor. The vapor rises, becomes clouds, and then falls back to the earth as rain, snow, sleet or hail.
In this video, students learn weather conditions are influenced by water currents. They also learn that a wave carries energy on the ocean's surface. Waves can be big like tsunamis, or small. A current is the constant movement of the water in the ocean, and there are different kinds of currents, defined by their characteristics and location.
In this slide show, students learn about various instruments that can be used to measure the weather. Some examples are the thermometer, hygrometer, anemometer, barometer, rain gauge and the wind vane.
In this video, students learn that weathering and erosion are continuous processes that gradually change the natural environment over time. Weathering is the process of wearing down materials into sediment. Erosion occurs when this sediment is moved.
