An anemometer measure the wind speed! Return 5th Grade Topic 2 Question What kind of weather can we expect if a low pressure system is coming our way? 5th Grade Topic 2 Answer Low pressure systems bring clouds, rain, and storms! Low pressure systems are designated by a red ‘L’. Remember, red = bad weather (danger!)! Return 4th Grade Topic 3 Question What kind of weather can we expect if a high pressure system is rolling though? 4th Grade Topic 3 Answer Sunny and clear skies! The clouds and bad weather have been ‘pushed’ away. A high pressure symbol on a map is a red ‘H’. Remember, red = sunny! Return 4th Grade Topic 4 Question What do meteorologists do? 4th Grade Topic 4 Answer Meteorologists are scientists that study the weather. Many meteorologists study the weather and then give you period reports on the weather during a newscast! Return 3rd Grade Topic 5 Question How does a warm front occur? Be as detailed as possible! 3rd Grade Topic 5 Answer Warm fronts occur when a warm air mass and cold air mass are heading towards each other, and then the warm air mass creeps over the cold air mass like a blanket. Blankets warm you up, and so do warm front! Return 3rd Grade Topic 6 Question How does a cold front occur? Be as detailed as possible! 3rd Grade Topic 6 Answer A cold front occurs when a cold air mass pushes a warm air mass away. When the warm air mass is pushed away, only cooler air remains (which is why you are cold!) Return 2nd Grade Topic 7 Question What is weather? Give an example to support your explanation! 2nd Grade Topic 7 Answer Weather is the state of the atmosphere at any given time. For example, yesterday’s weather was sunny, clear skies, and a light cool breeze! Return 2nd Grade Topic 8 Question What is climate? Give an example to support your explanation! 2nd Grade Topic 8 Answer Climate is a regions weather over a long period of time (how basically how the conditions usually are). For example, in Antarctica, it is always cold, barely ever reaching above freezing (which is 32* F). Return 1st Grade Topic 9 Question How do weather maps help us? What is the purpose for them? 1st Grade Topic 9 Answer Weather maps helps us predict the weather! Without weather maps, we wouldn’t know if we could play soccer after school (because it might rain!) or we wouldn’t know what kind of clothing to put on in the morning Return before we come to school! 1st Grade Topic 10 Question What does a hygrometer measure? 1st Grade Topic 10 Answer Hygrometers measure humidity, or the amount of water vapor in the air! Return Million Dollar Question Grade Level Topic 11 1,000,000 Question List ALL 6 weather instruments we learned about, and what they measure!! 1,000,000 Answer Rain Gauge – Precipitation Thermometer – Temperature Barometer – Air Pressure Anemometer – Wind Speed Hygrometer – Humidity Wind Vane – Wind Direction Return Thanks for Playing!
