Linking to Weather
As a result of their observations and experiences, students should be
ready to understand that wind is air "on the move" and that
this air movement is a key component of weather. It is the movement of
air masses that both causes and distributes weather conditions. That is
why scientists measure and track wind as part of atmospheric conditions.
In further experiments, your students will make other measurements and
atmospheric observations similar to those used by scientists to make predictions
about everyday weather.
