  1. 8th Grade Science Do Now Monday, October 29, 2012 On page __, make 5 observations about the map at your table.

  2. 8th Grade Science Today’s Schedule Monday, October 29, 2012 Do Now Air Pressure Candle Activity Gateways Reading: Air Pressure Four Squares Essential Question Vocabulary Global Winds Easterlies Westerly Trade Winds Coriolis Effect Ocean Currents Jet Stream Global Pattern High Pressure Low Pressure Front Weather Systems Deep Ocean Currents Atmospheric Movement How does energy from the Sun drive Earth’s weather and climate?

  3. 8th Grade Science Air Pressure Candle Activity Monday, October 29, 2012 • Put on your safety goggles. • Carefully place the candle in the center of the page in the water. • Light the candle. • Let the candle burn for about 1 minute. • Swiftly invert the test tube over the lit candle so the opening of the test tube is below the surface of the water but not touching the pan. Hold the test tube in place for a few minutes while you make observations.

  4. 8th Grade Science Air Pressure Candle Activity Monday, October 29, 2012 • On page __ of your INB, record your observations. • As a table, discuss possible explanations for your observations. • Answer the following questions: • What gas is needed for the candle to burn? • What happened once you inverted the test tube? Why? • What happened to the temperature of the air inside the test tube once it was inverted over the flame? • What happened to the air pressure inside the test tube?

  5. 8th Grade Science Gateways Reading: Air Pressure Monday, October 29, 2012 Read: Winds and Air Pressure On page __ of your INB, divide your paper into four squares and answer the questions.

  6. 8th Grade Science Do Now Tuesday, October 30, 2012 • Examine the map of the United States. • On page __ of your INB, answer the following questions. • Near which city is the high pressure system located? • Near which cities are the low pressure systems located? • Which locations are most likely experiencing clear, dry weather? • Which location is most likely experiencing rainy weather? • Which location is most likely experiencing high winds?

  7. 8th Grade Science Today’s Schedule Tuesday, October 30, 2012 Do Now “Crushing It” Analysis Essential Question Vocabulary Global Winds Easterlies Westerly Trade Winds Coriolis Effect Ocean Currents Jet Stream Global Pattern High Pressure Low Pressure Front Weather Systems Deep Ocean Currents Atmospheric Movement How does energy from the Sun drive Earth’s weather and climate?

  8. 8th Grade Science Today we will… Tuesday, October 30, 2012 8.10(B)  identify how global patterns of atmospheric movement influence local weather using weather maps that show high and low pressures and fronts Today’s Objective: Examine high and low pressure systems and the weather associated with each type of system.

  9. 8th Grade Science Crushing It Tuesday, October 30, 2012 • On page __ of your INB, draw an illustration of the setup and answer the following questions. • What energy transformations are occurring? • What happens as the water inside the can begins to boil? • How does the density of the air inside the can compare to the air outside the can?

  10. 8th Grade Science Crushing It Tuesday, October 30, 2012 • Analysis • On page__, record your observations and draw an illustration of the can. • How did the air pressure cause the can to change? • How does this activity relate to the Air Pressure Candle Activity we did yesterday?

  11. 8th Grade Science DO NOW Wednesday & Thursday, Oct. 31 & Nov. 1, 2012 Examine the map at your table. On page __ of your INB, make 3 observations about the map and make a prediction about what the different symbols signify.

  14. 8th Grade Science Reading: Air Masses & Fronts Wednesday & Thursday, Oct. 31 & Nov. 1, 2012 • Read: Air Masses & Fronts • Using pages __ - __ of your INB, create the foldable. • Include: • the name of the front • (Warm Front, Cold Front, Stationary Front, • Occluded Front) • a diagram of the front • a description of the front formation • the weather associated with each front

  15. 8th Grade Science Card Sort Wednesday & Thursday, Oct. 31 & Nov. 1, 2012 Complete the card sort with a partner. Add the symbols for each front to the foldable.

  16. 8th Grade Science Weather Stations Wednesday & Thursday, Oct. 31 & Nov. 1, 2012 Go to each of the stations and complete the assignments. Station 1: Temperature and Pressure Station 2: Fronts and Pressure Station 3: Jet Stream Station 4: Frontal Movement

  17. 8th Grade Science Exit Ticket Wednesday & Thursday, Oct. 31 & Nov. 1, 2012 Examine the map below. On page __ in your INB, make a prediction about what the weather will be in Austin and in ___________ on Friday.
