DOUBLE ENTRY JOURNAL DIRECTIONS FOR D.E.J. 1.READ text, 2. SUMMARIZE, 3. RESPOND to questions SUMMARY WEATHER: TEMPERATURE The atmosphere and temperature are connected. Temperature can be determined by speed of molecules, wind, and sunlight. Thermometers are the most common way to measure temperature. Temperature is measured in Celsius and Fahrenheit. QUESTIONS 2. Sunlight and wind can determine temperature. 3. Slower molecules means lower temperature 6. Boiling is 100°C and freezing point is 0°C 7. Boiling is 212°F and freezing point is 32°F Answer the questions in TAGS format if able to
DOUBLE ENTRY JOURNAL DIRECTIONS FOR D.E.J. 1.READ text, 2. SUMMARIZE, 3. RESPOND to questions SUMMARY WEATHER: Precipitation Precipitation is moisture produced by clouds. All precipitation comes from clouds, but not all clouds make precipitation. Water vapor frozen into ice crystals is called snow – every flake is different. Sleet is frozen, melted, and refrozen. Hail is a collision of water and ice crystals bouncing around in the clouds. QUESTIONS 2. Precipitation is: rain, snow, hail, and sleet. 3. Rain is the most common precipitation. 6. Sleet forms when falling ice melts and re-freezes. 7. Hail forms when water and ice collide. 8. Hail gets bigger the more it gets bounced around. Answer the questions in TAGS format if able to

The wing chill factor makes the temperatures change. QUESTIONS 1.Wind is the flow of air. 2.Wind vanes measure the direction of the wind. 4. Anemometers measures the direction of the wind. 7. Prevailing westerlies most impact the weather in the United States. 8. Wind chill factor is the way the wind makes the temperature feel. Answer the questions in TAGS format if able to

Low pressure systems usually bring rain and cloudy skies. High pressure systems bring dry weather (usually sunny) QUESTIONS 1. Air pressure the weight of the air over a given spot. 3. Low pressure systems usually bring rain or other precipitation and cloudy skies. 4. High pressure systems bring dry weather. 6. The Northern Hemisphere’s high pressure systems move clockwise. 7. Low pressure systems move counter-clockwise. Answer the questions in TAGS format if able
