Discover the wind's direction using bubbles, a map and a keen eye. Learners blow bubbles and note their general direction on a map, taking readings from different points around a building.

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

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 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 design and build a simple wind vane —one of the oldest kinds of weather tools— and use it to show wind direction.

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