In this three-part activity, learners use food to determine the effects of wind, sandblasting and water on regolith (dust) formation and deposition on Earth.

In this outdoor activity, learners use only their senses to to find the extremes of several environmental variables or physical factors: wind, temperature, light, slope and moisture.

In this activity, learners will engineer their own weather vane. This activity includes step-by-step instructions with pictures and a "What's Happening?" section explaining how the activity worked.

In this activity, learners model atmospheric convection currents using food coloring, water, and clear cups. Activity includes step-by-step instructions, STEM connections, and more.

In this meteorological activity, learners get to build their very own anemometer (instrument for measuring wind speed) using a paper cup.

In this activity, learners will build rainwater collectors to practice meteorology in their own backyard. Collect and analyze data to determine how much rainfall you get in a set period of time.

In this activity, learners investigate wind by comparing the force of wind in different locations. Learners build wind-o-meters out of wooden sticks and strips of paper.

In this weather activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will demonstrate the changes in atmospheric pressure by constructing their own barometer.

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

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting) is a full inquiry investigation into meteorology and forecasting.

In this activity on page 27, learners perform an experiment to learn about how different types of marine debris degrade and how weather and sunlight affect the rate of degradation.

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

In this activity, learners explore the different heating properties of soil and water.

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

In this activity, learners simulate the energy transfer between the earth and space by using the light from a desk lamp desk lamp with an incandescent bulb and a stack of glass plates.
