Happy Monday, Scholars! Write “HW 6.4” in your agenda and take out Friday’s HW. Put everything under your desk except for a pencil. Silently complete the Do Now on your desk.

HW Review high high low

HW Review low high Durham Raleigh barometer A big thunderstorm is over Raleigh. The air pressure would be _____. Nearby in Durham the skies are clear and the air pressure is _______. Since wind moves from areas of high to low pressure, wind would be coming from ___________ and going to ___________. If the differences in pressure are really big, the winds could even be really fast! We can measure the differences in air pressure by using a ______________. low high Durham Raleigh barometer

Do Now Review C B

What is our AIM today? SWBAT explain what weather comes from different types of fronts.

These 2 annotations will be useful! Air Masses You are going to annotate your own passage and answer the questions! Be sure to read the questions first! Remember the annotation symbols we use while reading… ? – question  – connection box – new vocabulary underline – evidence S – summarize * - main ideas These 2 annotations will be useful!

Guided Practice tropical polar maritime continental Fill in the boxes as we fill them in as a class. warm = ____________ cold = _____________ wet = _______________ dry = __________________ tropical polar maritime continental

Guided Practice mP cP mP mT cT mT

Guided Practice polar maritime tropical continental tropical maritime The front comes from the north, over the ocean. __________________ and __________________ The front comes from land in the south. __________________ and __________________ The front comes from the ocean in the south. __________________ and __________________ polar maritime tropical continental tropical maritime

Fronts collide boundary front weather What happens when air masses meet? Air masses _____________ (or crash into each other) very easily. The ________________ between two air masses is called a ___________. Many ______________ changes can happen here! Draw a line on the map where a front would be found. collide boundary front weather

Study Jams! What are the different types of fronts, and what types of weather do they cause?

clouds & some precipitation Types of Fronts under rises wind stops top bottom heavy rain, thunder, cold air, & wind drizzle, clear skies, & warm air clouds & some precipitation

Independent Practice cold stationary warm stationary cold  ________________ Which front has a cold air mass forcing itself underneath a warm air mass? _________________ Which front has two air masses that meet but stay stuck facing each other? _________________ Which front has a warm air mass rising up gently over a cold air mass? _________________ Which front causes many days of clouds and precipitation due to two air masses staying stuck together and neither one moving on top of the other? _________________ Which front that causes violent thunderstorms to form? stationary warm stationary cold

Independent Practice cold air rushing under warm air warm air slowly pushing into and rising over cold air warm and cold air meeting and not moving
