In this meteorology activity, learners build weather vanes using straws, paperclips, and cardstock.

In this activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting), learners will construct an air cannon by cutting a hole in the bottom of a bucket and stretching a garbage bag over the other end

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.

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

This lesson challenges groups of learners to design and construct a wind generator with the most electrical output.

In this activity, learners will engineer three different parachutes to test how well each one works.

In this activity, learners make a barometer, an instrument to measure change in air pressure.

In this activity, learners explore clouds and how they form.

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