In addition, students will be able to recognize appropriate scales and units, analyze data, and integrate mathematical calculations to produce a forecast map. All instrumentation will be provided free of charge as will school or class home pages and data tables.
Instrumentation is necessary for the students to have a hands on experience.
Questions about weather conditions should also be addressed. These will help to guide the activity. One week before starting the activity, explain the instrumentation and start observations. Past weather conditions can be retrieved and used. The data may be collected at home or at school.
