Learners use M&Ms® (or any other multi-color, equally-sized small candy or pieces) to create a pie graph that expresses the composition of air.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this activity related to indoor air pollution, learners build take-home dust catchers with wax paper and petroleum jelly.

In this weather forecasting activity, learners determine the location of cold and warm fronts on weather plot maps.

In this activity, learners make their own "tornado" using two soda bottles and water.

In this activity, learners discover how to determine the distance to a lightning strike or nearby thunderstorm.

In this activity/demonstration, learners observe what happens when two ping pong balls are suspended in the air by a hair dryer. Use this activity to demonstrate how rain drops grow by coalescence.

In this sunny day experiment, learners measure and compare how quickly light and dark colored materials absorb heat.

In this activity, learners graph 48 hourly air temperatures from a local weather observation site and observe the diurnal temperature variations.

This three-part activity shows learners how to build three meteorology tools: a wind vane, a rain gauge, and a barometer.
