- Includes enough material for 15 groups of students - teacher's manual and student study guide copymasters are included
Study the basics of meteorology with this kit from Innovating Science. During the lab, students will learn about pressure changes, wind speed, cloud formation and development, and how to read weather maps. In addition, they will get the chance to build their own barometers and anemometers. Materials included in the it also allow the instructor to demonstrate cloud formation by creating a vapor cloud. This demonstration can be performed up to five times. The kit includes enough material for 15 groups of students, and comes with teacher's manual and student study guide copymasters. Additional items needed: scissors, tape, construction paper, ruler, stapler, markers.
