Grades 5–8. Spencer Christian hosts this engaging look at the amazing spectacle of weather in our world. Covering a wide range of weather events, the series takes students on a whirlwind tour through everything from the formation of a rain droplet to the development of a tornado’s vortex.
Through dramatic live-action footage, vivid animated graphics, detailed weather maps, and hands-on experiments suitable for science fair projects, students go beyond the daily weather forecast and into the realm of exploration, learning how to observe and think about the weather.
Each video includes a detailed teacher's guide that provides additional information on the topic, vocabulary words, discussion questions, follow-up activities, lists of recommended books, and internet resources.
