2. Do Now 1/26 1.Fill out your planner. 2.Take out WC 18 3.Read page 63 in your textbook. 4.Complete WC 18 #1 MondayTuesdayWednesdayThursdayFriday -No school today -WC 18 All (1/28) -CFU for LT G tomorrow -Check your grades -Goggles tomorrow -WC 19 #1-8

3. When Air Masses Meet… Type of front: Cold Air masses: Cold air mass slides under warm air mass and pushes it up rapidly Speed: Fast Moisture Content: High moisture: Clouds, rain or snow Low Moisture: Only clouds

4. When Air Masses Meet… Type of front: Warm Air masses: Warm air mass rides over a cold air mass – getting pushed up. Speed: Slow Effect: High moisture: Light rain or snow Low Moisture: Scattered clouds

5. When Air Masses Meet… Type of front: Stationary Air masses: Neither air mass has the energy to push the other (temperature is close to the same) Speed: Does not move Effect: Days of clouds and precipitation

6. When Air Masses Meet… Type of front: Occluded Air masses: A cold and a cool air mass meet and push up a warm air mass Speed: N/A Effect: Clouds, rain and snow

8. Air pressure Air pressure: force per unit area exerted on a surface by the weight of air above that surface.

16. Weather vs. Climate: what’s the difference?

17. Weather vs. Climate Weather The condition of the atmosphere in a certain place, at a specific moment in time. Can change quickly Includes: – Temperature – Pressure – Wind – Humidity – Precipitation Climate The condition of the atmosphere in a certain place over a long period of time. Changes very slowly over many years. Includes: – Temperature – Pressure – Wind – Humidity – Precipitation

18. HW: -WC 18 ALL PUSH IN YOUR CHAIR!!! Reminder

19. Do Now 1/27 1.Take out WC 18 and compare answers with your table group. 2.Update your Weekly Planner with any questions NOT finished yet to do for HW tonight.

20. After You Review WC 18… 1.Today you will be a meteorologist. You and your table partner will use a weather simulator to predict interactions between common air masses and ocean currents. 2.Working in elbow pairs a)Left-hand partner pick-up 2 study pages (one for each) b)Right-hand partner pick-up computer

22. What is on tomorrow’s CFU? Do you know these words enough to use them properly? – Humidity – Air Pressure – Temperature – Wind – Density – Convection current – Air mass – Thermal energy Can you explain these things? – Sea breezes – Land breezes – The Coriolis Effect – How land and water respond to solar energy – The effect of Earth’s surface (land or water) on the temperature of the air above it

23. -HW: -WC 18 All tomorrow -CFU WC Learning Target G PUSH IN YOUR CHAIR!!! Reminder

24. Do Now 1/28 1.Swap notebooks and grade WC 18 2.Summarize WC 18 with your table group and be ready to report out. 3.Take out a correcting pen.

25. How can we engineer our home to work with the natural water cycle so that we can sustain human water use well into the future? Weather & Climate: Scientific Principles 54 55 WC 13: The water cycle is the processes by which water circulates between the earth's oceans, atmosphere, and land. WC 14: In the water cycle water changes state due to a change in energy. The processes are called evaporation, transpiration, condensation, and sublimation. WC 15: Water heats slowly and cools slowly. Soil heats fast and cools fast. WC 16: Air takes on the temperature and humidity of the land below it. WC 17: Wind is created by cold, denser air sinking and moving to replace the hot, less dense rising air in the atmosphere creating a convection current. WC 18:

26. CFU W&C learning target G Clear your desk for the CFU. Spades collect test blinds.
