Description |
| Florida Water Hazard Warning Simulation | This lesson is a culminating lesson in the Florida Landforms & Water Unit that gives students the ability to use their knowledge of water and potential weather hazards that affect different Florida landforms. This lesson allows students to create a computer program that demonstrates a flood hazard and how to monitor it. |
| The Water Cycle: If/Then and Loops | This lesson introduces the water cycle to enhance the understanding of how bodies of water and landforms interact to form a complex system. This lesson provides students the opportunity to see how systems can be found in many different forms from science to computers. This lesson will also introduce pseudocode as another form of a procedure. This is lesson 3 of 4 in the Florida Landform and Water Unit. |
| The Ups and Downs of It All | This lesson will focus on the standard SC.6.E.7.2, which provides opportunity for students to investigate how water moves between the atmosphere and hydrosphere resulting in patterns that make Earth unique. |
| Changes in the Atmosphere | In this lesson, students will connect the water cycle and weather. |
| 3D Model of a Water Cycle | Students will be able to show the movement of energy in the water cycle in each of the specified location and be able to explain how it is related to the temperature and precipitation in each city each month. The research and 3D model that has been done on the water cycle will apply how the cycling of water between the atmosphere and hydrosphere has an effect on weather patterns and climate in their specific city. |
| The Wonder of Water | In this lesson, students will explore the water (hydrologic) cycle is and how it affects weather and climate on Earth. |
| Water Cycle and Weather | In this lesson, students will apply their knowledge of the water cycle to weather patterns. An interactive video will review the water cycle and a hands-on activity will have them apply their knowledge to how thunderstorms are formed. |
| Water Cycle and Weather | In this lesson, students will investigate the effects of the water cycle on Earth's weather. This includes the phase changes within the water cycle with key vocabulary words including evaporation, condensation, precipitation, transpiration. |
| Newscast Weather Report | This activity engages the students in using data on weather conditions for a set of hurricanes to understand relationships between wind speed, air pressure, and water temperature as well as the impact of global wind and water patterns on hurricane paths. The integrated lesson involves the knowledge of a coordinate plane and its application in ocean mapping. |
