1. Good afternoon! BELL Work (5 min.)
Set up today’s pages: 38-39
Answer the question below under the IN:
Three
Get FUSION book from back cabinet.

2. Objectives & Learning Goals: Meteorologists / Astronomers CAN:
Differentiate between weather and climate using factors such as temperature, precipitation, humidity, air pressure, and wind.
Describe the 3 major climate zones.
Review Astronomy for EOC.
Level 4
I can evaluate how weather models use current atmospheric conditions to predict the weather and analyze climate data to take a stance on the possibility of climate change.
Level 3
I can clearly differentiate between weather and climate AND describe how global patterns such as the jet stream and ocean currents influence local weather.
Level 2
I can describe how ocean currents and winds move around the Earth, list factors that influence weather formation, and summarize examples of weather and climate data.
Level 1
With help I can explain some factors that influence weather and the difference between weather and climate.

3. Checking the IN:

4. Intro by Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson
Pay close attention to how he explains the differences between weather and climate.

Level 3
I can clearly differentiate between weather and climate AND describe how global patterns such as the jet stream and ocean currents influence local weather.
Level 2
I can describe how ocean currents and winds move around the Earth, list factors that influence weather formation, and summarize examples of weather and climate data.
Level 1
With help I can explain some factors that influence weather and the difference between weather and climate.
Weather daily temperature and precipitation.
Climate  temperature range and precipitation pattern over the course of years.
