Warm-Up: Copy Key Question Objective How do air masses form? WHAT: Students will model the formation of air masses HOW: By drawing a model of air mass formation WHY: To determine how air masses will eventually have different characteristics and form fronts.
Warm-Up: Make sure key question is in your notebook. Objective How does fluid densities affect the interactions between air masses in the formation of fronts? WHAT: Students will model the formation of fronts HOW: By creating front simulations using water, which represents air WHY: To determine how fluid density affects the formation of fronts when two air masses collide.
Warm-Up: Make sure key question is in your notebook. Objective What are the characteristics of the front types (compare and contrast the fronts)? WHAT: Students will model the formation of fronts HOW: By creating front simulations using water, which represents air WHY: To determine how fluid density affects the formation of fronts when two air masses collide.
