Wind Speed Part 2

Daily Objective Meteorologists use a wind scale to describe the strength of the wind. Meteorologists use anemometers to measure the speed of the wind.

Vocabulary Anemometer – Calm – Gentle Breeze – Moderate Breeze – Strong Breeze –

Introduction Today we are going to investigate objects in this bag. Lets see what's in here. We have a straw, a feather, a styrofoam ball, a cotton ball, and a balloon. Is there anything else in the bag? Air

Observations and Discussions Can you move things from place to place? Can you feel air? If you fill the plastic bag with air can the bag be smashed? What is air?

Vocabulary Review Anemometer – Calm – Gentle Breeze – Moderate Breeze – Strong Breeze –
