  1. Guest Teacher: 4.18.13

  2. Today’s Tasks • Upcoming Dates: TEST ON MONDAY • Seasons / Heat Transfers / Water Cycle / Layers of the Atmosphere / Weather Prediction • Complete the Bell Ringer • Complete the Test Review • Due Friday • If time, review the a Weather Map

  3. iPad Expectations • iPad’s may be used in class but must be use for instructional purposes. If you are not following staying on task, the iPad may be taken away an you will get a paper copy and a book! • Students with restrictions – a paper copy and books are your resources today! • Things you want to stay away from today: • Games • Messaging • YouTube

  4. Bell Ringer: 4.18.13 • The different types of clouds can help us understand what is happening when it comes to weather. • Explain and discuss what types of clouds form at cold fronts (beginning of a cold air mass) and a warm front (beginning of a warm air mass). • May google this or use the QR codes for resources on the next page!!!

  5. Bell Ringer Resources: • Cold Front • Warm Front

  6. Bell Ringer: Answer • Cold Fronts: • Move faster • Cause warm air to rise fast creating tall clouds • Cumulonimbus • Warm Fronts • Move Slower • Squash out the cold • Clouds form between the warm and cold air masses stretching over a large area • Stratus

  7. Bell Ringer: Continued • Cumulonimbus • Stratus

  8. Learning Targets • What are we learning? • The information that is expected to be understood for the test • How will we know if we were successful? • I collaborated with my peers by teaching each other the concepts on the test review guide and recording the answers. • I wrote down questions I still have to ask Mr. Streitz explain tomorrow in class.

  9. Test Review 1st – 3rd • Download the review from my website • Go to the “Weather/Meteorology” page • Download the “Weather Test Review (1st – 3rd Hour)” • Instructions: • Must teach other questions on the grid by asking other students (only get 1 answer per student) • How should this look? • Student 1 asks Student 2 if he can answer a questions he/she has left • Student 2 says “yes” • Student 2 explain his/her answer to student 1 • Student 1 listens and summarizes what he/she was taught and records it on their “Weather Test Review”

  10. Test Review 5th-6th Period • Pass out the review guide (paper copy) • Students may use the book or notes to answer questions(may be on their iPad but appropriate use is essential) • Instructions: • Must teach other questions on the grid by asking other students (only get 1 answer per student) • How should this look? • Student 1 asks Student 2 if he can answer a questions he/she has left • Student 2 says “yes” • Student 2 explain his/her answer to student 1 • Student 1 listens and summarizes what he/she was taught and records it on their “Weather Test Review” • Student 1 moves onto another student to complete the sheet by following the same process again

  11. Done Early….Looking at the Pressure • Determine where the strongest winds are: A or B. Why?

  12. B A

  13. Done Early….Looking at the Pressure • Location B: • The isobars are closer together telling you there is a bigger pressure difference • This creates stronger winds!!!

  14. Done Early….Looking at the Pressure • Can you determine the wind direction at locations A and location B?

  15. B A

  16. Done Early….Looking at the Pressure • Location A: • Northeast / North • Low turn counter clockwise • Location B: • Southeast/ South • Low turns counter clockwise • High turns clockwise

  17. Done Early….Looking at the Pressure • What state would most likely have cloud cover today? • What state would not have cloud cover?

  18. Done Early….Looking at the Pressure • What state would most likely have cloud cover today? • Missouri, Iowa, Illinois • They are at the lowest pressure • What state would not have cloud cover? • Maine (due to being at the center of the high pressure) • Western state due to an increase in pressure (high pressure)

  19. Finished… • Review vocabulary
