23 Date: Name: WORKSHEET 12A Let s make a thermometer You need: clear, plastic bottle (500ml. water bottle works) water surgical spirit clear plastic drinking straw modelling clay food colouring Index card PROCESS: Fill about 1/4 of the bottle full with equal parts of water and surgical spirit. Add a few drops of food colouring. Put the straw in the bottle, but don't let it touch the bottom. Use the modelling clay to seal the neck of the bottle, so the straw stays in place. (Make sure the straw does not touch the bottom of the bottle.) Glue the photocopy of the thermometer scale onto an index card. Stick the card into the clay, behind the straw. Hold your hands on the bottom of the bottle and watch the mixture move up through the straw.
24 EXPLANATION: Why does this happen? Just like any thermometer, the mixture expanded when it was warmed. This made the mixture no longer fit in the bottom of the bottle. As the surgical spirit expanded the coloured mixture moved up through the straw. If the bottle were to get extremely hot, the mixture would have come up through the top of the straw. Some sentences to help you to explain the process To make a we used and. The thermometer measures The mixture of water and surgical spirit when it is warm. Adapted from: and Carson, M K: (2007) Weather projects for young scientists
25 Thermometer Measures temperature warmer cooler
26 Date: Name: WORKSHEET 12B Let s make a barometer You need: Empty can or wide-mouthed jar Large balloon Duct tape toothpick clear tape 2 drinking straws scissors Cardboard empty 5 litre bottle PROCESS: Cut the neck off of a large balloon. Stretch the balloon top tightly over the can or jar. Use duct tape to secure it to the can or jar. It needs to be an airtight seal! Put two drinking straws together (by inserting the end of one into the end of the other (they should overlap at least 3 cm.) Tap the toothpick to the end of one of the straws: it should stick out 1cm or so. This will be the barometer s indicator needle. Put the non-toothpick end of the straws on top of the balloon covered can or jar.. The end of the straw should be in the centre of the balloon covered top. Use a single strip of clear tape to attach the straw onto the balloon. Cut out the barometer scale and glue it on the 5 litres bottle. Put the 5 litre bottle behind the toothpick end of the straw. Put the barometer indoors, in a still area where temperature does not change (do not n set it near a window or a door). Let the barometer sit for a number of hours before taking the first reading.
27 EXPLANATION: If there is a high air pressure, the toothpick will rise; if there is low pressure, the toothpick will fall. The changes in air pressure are going to expand or contract the balloon. When there is a high pressure, the weather is going to be fine. When there is a low pressure, the weather is going to be cloudy or rainy. Some sentences to help you to explain the process To make a we used and. The barometer measures. The air pressure or The balloon. When the toothpick the air pressure is and the weather will be When the toothpick the air pressure is and the weather will be
28 Barometer er An instrument that measures air pressure Rising? 8 8 Clear skies! Falling? Cloudy or rain! Adapted from: Carson, M K: (2007) Weather projects for young scientists Chicago Review Press
29 Date: Name: WORKSHEET 12C Let s make a rain gauge You need: 2 litre plastic bottle weights (stones, marbles ) Scissors Clear tape Clear packing tape (Airon-fix) water ruler PROCESS: Cut the plastic bottle where the sides start to slope up to the mouth. Put tape around both cut edges. The top part will act as a funnel. Put the stones or marbles into the bottom of the large half of the bottle to stabilize it. Set the funnel inside the bottle so the taped edges touch. Copy or cut out the rain gauge scale and tape it on the outside part of the bottle. Make sure the numbers reflect the measure in cm and/or mm. Make sure the 0 line is above the stones or marbles. Put the clear packing tape ( Airon fix ) to cover the scale so it is waterproof. Pour water into the gauge until it reaches the 0 line of the scale. (You will have to put water every day up to the 0 because of water evaporation). Put the rin gauge outside in an open area, avoiding trees and buildings. If it rains, the water will collect in the bottle.
30 EXPLANATION: The rain gauge measures the rainfall in a specific area. Precipitation is measured in mm or cm (and not in litres!) Rain, hail or snow are forms of precipitation. Precipitation occurs when clouds are saturated. Some sentences to help you to explain the process To make a we used and. The rain gauge measures. Rainfall is measured in., and are different kinds of precipitation. Adapted from: Carson, M K: (2007) Weather projects for young scientists Chicago Review Press
31 Rain gauge An instrument that measures rainfall
32 Date: Name: WORKSHEET 12D Let s make an anemometer You need: 4 small paper cups Large plastic cup 2 drinking straws 1 pin scissors A stapler A sharp pencil with a rubber on the top Packing tape Square of thick cardboard PROCESS: Make a hole through the bottom of the large cup so that the pencil will slide through. Tape the cup onto the cardboard and push the pencil through the hole. Cut off the tops of the small cups (they must be about 2,5 cm) deep. Colour or mark one of the cups in a different colour. Tape or staple a cup onto each end of the straws, one facing in one direction and one facing in the other. Staple the straws into an X shape. Attach them to the pencil rubber with the pushpin. Push the straight pin through the two straws where they cross. Put the anemometer outside (put some rocks on the thick cardboard to steady the instrument if necessary). Observe the anemometer in different situations. Watching the different cup, record the number of revolutions it makes in one minute. With this measurement you will know if the wind is picking up or slowing down (comparing the data collected with the previous ones) Now your anemometer is ready for use!
33 EXPLANATION: An anemometer is useful because it rotates with the wind. If you want to calculate the velocity at which your anemometer spins or rotates, count the number of revolutions per minute (RPM). Next, calculate the circumference (in cm) of the circle made by the rotating paper cups (ask your teacher for help). Multiply your RPM value by the circumference of the circle and you will have an approximation of the velocity of at which your anemometer spins (in cm per minute). Real anemometers measure wind speed in kilometres per hour (Kph). They convert the rotations per minute to a more accurate wind speed. Some sentences to help you to explain the process To make an we used and The anemometer measures. Wind speed is measured in. Wind makes the anemometer. The number of rotations per can be converted to a certain speed. Adapted from: Breen,M. and Friestad, K (2000):The kids book of weather forecasting Williamson books Nashville Tennessee
34 Date: Name: WORKSHEET 12E Let s make an wind vane You need: Thick cardboard Unsharpened pencil Packing tape Empty soup can Scissors A clay ball Pen cap A ruler A magnetic compass Stones, sand or heavy objects PROCESS: Cut an arrow shape out of a thick cardboard. Cut a circle and make a round direction disk similar to the example provided. Decorate it and, if possible, laminate it. Make a hole in the centre of the disk. The hole must be big enough for a pencil to pass. Push the pencil, rubber-side down through the hole in the direction disk. Stick the eraser end into the small ball of clay and put it at the bottom of the can. Fill the can with sand. This will make it stable. Tape the pen cap onto one side of the arrow. Put the arrow on top of the unsharpened pencil. The arrow must be level If not, re-tape the pen cap. Make sure that the arrow spins freely. If it does not, use a different type of pen cap. Your wind vane is ready!
35 Round direction disk N NW NE W E SW SE S Put the wind vane outside in an open area, at least 1 metre above the ground and away from high walls or trees. Use the compass to set North on the direction disk towards North. EXPLANATION: The point of the arrow will spin into the wind, indicating the way the wind is coming from. If the arrow is pointing to the west, the wind is blowing from the west. Adapted from: Breen,M. and Friestad, K (2000):The kids book of weather forecasting Williamson books Nashville Tennessee Carson, M K: (2007) Weather projects for young scientists Chicago Review Press
36 Some sentences to help you to explain the process To make a we used and The wind vane measures. To know the wind direction we use a. Wind makes the wind vane. If the arrow points to the East, the wind comes from the.
