Extractions: A major precollege teacher enhancement initiative of the American Meteorological Society (AMS). Its main goal is the training of K-12 Weather Education Resource Teachers who will promote the teaching of science, mathematics, and technology using weather as a vehicle. A 13-week course is offered twice a year to selected participants. It focuses on the study of the atmospheric environment through the use of electronically transmitted weather data and learning materials combined with Study Guide readings and investigations. more>> Meteorology: Does Weather Happen Randomly? - Richard Levine, Tefft Middle School, Streamwood, IL Does weather happen randomly or are there patterns that can be recognized? If there are patterns, what are they and how can we use them? Scientific skills involved are: collecting, recording and analyzing data; thinking creatively and critically, and communicating results. Students use graphs and spreadsheets to do investigations on the relation between altitude and temperature, latitude and temperature, the direction weather moves, atmospheric readings, the relation between dewpoint temperature and actual air temperature as a storm approaches, and atmospheric readings as a line of storms approaches and departs a reporting station, predicting the weather.

Extractions: The Weather Classroom: Careers in Meteorology Print this lesson plan. This lesson addresses the following National Standards: Preview If you study weather and weather forecasting, you're a meteorologist. Meteorologists can work for the government, universities, television and radio stations, at nuclear power plants, airports, farms and fisheries, insurance, investment companies and much more. People interested in the Earth and its atmosphere can take many different career paths. Hydrologists, oceanographers, climatologists, storm chasers, city planners, architects these diverse careers all require a basic understanding of weather and its effects.

Extractions: what are they and how can we use them? Investigate the concepts and tools meteorologists use. What is the relationship between altitude and temperature? What is the relationship between latitude and temperature? In which direction and how fast does weather move? What are the atmospheric readings as a H (High) or a L (Low) approaches and departs a reporting station? ... What areas of the U.S. would most likely be affected by acid rain? Why?
