Earth changes occur in measurable patterns, which are seasonal and daily.
Weather is a measurable change in earth's atmosphere. Because of its effect on people, weather has long been a subject of study and attempted prediction. Only in recent years have we been able to make weather predictions with any accuracy. In large and small groups students will begin to examine current technological instruments for their reliability in making weather predictions of their own. Technology research tools, small group collaboration, record keeping, presentation software, spreadsheets, word processing, action plans, story boards and electronic forums will be explored and refined.
