Develop instruments to measure weather conditions STEM Lab Develop instruments to measure weather conditions Objective: develop instruments to measure one of the following weather conditions: Air temperature Wind direction Wind Speed Precipitation Set-up: Testing Stations: Different stations where you can test your instrument Store: Where the materials and tools are available to build your instrument. Work Stations: Where the group will work on planning and building their instrument Lab Instructions: Students will work in small groups and will develop an instrument to measure one weather condition. Groups will be given time to brain storm solutions. Each group must complete a diagram with labels of how they plan to build their instrument. Each team will have one logistics person that will create the supply list and pick up supplies from the store. Unused items will be returned. Each group will be encouraged to continue to test and modify their instrument. If you finish early try calibrate your instrument. Presentations: Groups will present/demonstrate their instrument and explain the concept behind how their instrument works.
