This web quest must be done during an active hurricane. Students will use real-time data to analyze data, practice reading maps, and make predication. Students will also have the opportunity to research past hurricanes.
Overview: I created this Lesson Plan to help students learn about how to read weather maps. Weather maps give basic information about fronts, systems, and weather measurements. Weather maps illustrate the weather conditions for an area at a given time. SOL 6.7f states that students are expected to interpret basic weather maps, including the identification of warm and cold fronts. Also, students are to map the movement of cold and warm fronts and interpret their effects on observable weather conditions.Prior to this lesson, students should have already been introduced to weather tools, cloud types and types of weather.
