In this activity, learners investigate and compare the rate of drying in different conditions.

In this activity, learners explore how various energy sources can be used to cause a turbine to rotate.

In this engineering activity, learners build a device (an anemometer) to measure how fast the wind is blowing.

In this activity, learners test how cornstarch and glitter in water move when disturbed. Learners compare their observations with videos of Jupiter's and Earth's storm movements.

In this engineering/design activity, learners make a kite, fly it, and then work to improve the design. Learners explore how their kite design variations affect flight.

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.

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

In this quick activity, learners observe how wind creates ocean currents.

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