Grades 9–12. This refill kit provides the consumable materials for the Inquiries in Science®: Uncovering the Atmosphere Kit (item #251400).

• Explore the composition of the earth's atmosphere
• Alter atmospheric conditions to observe the effects on temperature
• Experiment to compare rates of heat absorption and emission of different substances
A Carolina Exclusive! Grades 9–12. Students explore the importance of the atmosphere in sustaining life. Through experimentation, they learn about the composition of the atmosphere, the development of frontal systems and wind, and how the atmosphere regulates and circulates heat. Then they design their own experiment to examine the temperature effects of altering the energy radiation balance in a model atmospheric system. Kit Refill replenishes consumed materials.

Note: Order an extra kit refill for each additional class section. For example, to teach the kit in 3 environmental science sections on the same day, purchase 1 kit, 2 kit refills, and 2 multi class equipment sets. Part of the Inquiries in Science® series.
