5 What do you need? Today you will need: Journal Pencil You Choose Vocabulary Textbook When you come in, take your seat and glue your vocabulary into your journal. Then, complete the card sort at your table.
6 Daily Objective Learning Target: We will analyze how convection currents cause changes in the air and oceans. Success Criteria: I will explain the components necessary for hurricane formation. Language Objective: I will describe how a hurricane forms.
7 Today s Goal I can understand the role of convection currents in forming weather systems.

9 Warm Up Tea Demo After watching the Tea demopartner talk: Explain what you think happened and why.
10 Explaining Wind When air is heated, it expands and takes up more spaces. Since the heated air is spread out and is less compacted, its density decreases,which causes the hot air to rise. Cold air becomes dense and sinks to the ground.
11 Explaining Wind Wind can be defined as air moving from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure in the atmosphere. If all areas across Earth s surface had the same air pressure, there would be no wind. The Sun, however, heats some parts of the Earth more than others, creating pressure differences.
12 Colored Water Demo After watching the colored water videopartner TALK: Explain what you think happened and why.
13 Currents in water
14 E. A. C
15 Explaining Ocean Currents When water is heated, it expands and its density decreases. Less dense matter tends to rise in a fluid such as ocean water. As the area around the equator warms, convection occurs in the oceans distributing the heat.
16 Unequal Heating of Earth The source of almost all of Earth s heat energy is the Sun. The Sun s heat is distributed by convection, conduction, and radiation and provides the energy to make weather. THINK ABOUT THIS 1. Why is heating unequal? 2. How does this relate to the Convection Current Demo you saw today?
17 Put it all together Where do convection currents occur?
18 Marzano s Square Convection Current HOT goes up and COLD goes down, that s how convection goes around.

31 Warm Up Identify as many things as you can from the weather map above.
32 Air Masses and Fronts
33 Download Explaining Weather You will need red, blue and purple markers or map pencils
34 Fronts A front is a boundary between 2 different air masses at Earth s surface. Fronts develop when air masses of different temperatures and humidity collide, cause a change in weather usually rainy and stormy weather. High Pressure Systems are caused by cold sinking air. Low Pressure Systems are caused by warm rising air.
35 Wind Brainpop
36 High and Low Air Pressure Balloon Demo Where is pressure the highest and lowest? Why does the air leave the balloon?
37 Jet Stream Link A fast moving current of air trapped between two air masses of different temperatures. The jet stream pushes weather from west to east across the United States. Jet Stream can bring cold air all the way down to Texas.
38 Jet Stream Link
39 Cold Fronts A cold front separates faster moving cold air, which pushes warmer air up and out of the way as it moves. Rain frequently occurs along the cold front. After a cold front passes there is often clear weather and high pressure.
40 Cold air pushes warm air out of the way.
41 Warm Front A warm front occurs when slower moving warm air replaces retreating cooler air. The warm air gradually rides over the cooler air, producing light to moderate rain. After a warm front there are warmer temperatures and higher humidity.
42 Stationary Front When cold and warm air meet, but do not move a stationary front forms. Weather becomes cloudy and overcast, light showers.
43 Stationary Front When cold and warm air meet, but do not move a stationary front forms. Weather becomes cloudy and overcast, light showers.
44 Occluded Front Occluded fronts occur when a stationary front is over taken by a cold front. COOLER air in front of the warm front is separated from the COLDER air behind the warm front. Rain will occur, snowstorms in some areas Occluded fronts can be purple or pink on weather maps.
45 Occluded Front Occluded fronts occur when a stationary front is over taken by a cold front. COOLER air in front of the warm front is separated from the COLDER air behind the warm front. Rain will occur, snowstorms in some areas Occluded fronts can be purple or pink on weather maps.
46 Day B- Identify how global patterns of atmospheric movement influence local weather using weather maps that show high and low pressures and fronts

49 An air mass with greater atmospheric pressure than the surrounding air. Caused by cold, sinking air. Clear, sunny weather An air mass with less pressure than surrounding air masses. Caused by warm, rising air. Cloudy, stormy weather Transfer of thermal energy in a fluid (liquid or gas), in which warmer fluid rises and cooler fluid sinks. High Pressure Low Pressure Convection Current
50 Movement of the air caused by differences in air pressure Wind A large volume of water flowing in a certain direction. Ocean Current A large tropical weather system consisting of an extreme low pressure air mass with heavy rains and high speed winds. Hurricane
