Seasons, Axial Tilt, Light, Temperature Weather and Climate, HW, Notes

This is a 250 slide PowerPoint presentation with built-in class notes (red slides), challenge questions with answers, built-in review opportunities, video links, two page homework, answer key, lesson notes and much more.

This PowerPoint begins describing what light is? The answer is confusing, so an alternative definition of an energy wave is used. A picture of an athlete with black marks under his eyes is shown and the students are asked what is the point here? The answer is then revealed and some important notes about how light reflects is provided. Places on Earth where light reflects and is absorbed is described. The need for sunscreen use and sun glasses is advised. Reflectiveness on a surface is covered as well as urban heat index. A light mill is shown. A definition of temperature is provided. Kinetic Molecular Theory is described, the temperature at which water boils, and absolute zero are discussed in a series of slides. Students convert some word problems with the assistance of ghost rider going form F to C and back. Students also play a version of red light green light with absolute zero, warm again. Directions are included. The seasons are then covered in a series of slides. Axial tilt is mentioned, seasons in different parts of the world and much more. Humidity is then addressed and a crushing a can activity is explained which uses humidity / condensation and air pressure. Dew and a sling psychrometer activity with instructions are included. This is a really neat PowerPoint that covers many difficult topics. Please see my entire Weather and Climate Unit on TpT described below before purchasing this PowerPoint.

This PowerPoint includes critical notes (Red Slides), exciting visuals, challenge questions, activities with directions and more. Text is usually placed at the top of the slide so it can be read from all angles of a classroom. Color coded slides, as well as a shade technique is used to increase student focus and allows the teacher to control the pace of the lesson. These PowerPoints are meant to be as interactive as possible and ask many questions, provides built in review opportunities, explain directions to activities, and much more. Transition effects are never used.

Please visit my other posting on TpT called the Weather and Climate Unit which includes this PowerPoint within the 2500+ slide PowerPoint roadmap, 14 page bundled homework / assessment, 5 page modified assessment, detailed answer keys, and 19 pages of unit notes for students who may require assistance that chronologically follow the PowerPoint slideshow. The answer keys and unit notes are great for support professionals. This larger file also includes two PowerPoint review games (110+ slides each with Answers), 26 .flv videos, lab handouts, activity sheets, rubrics, materials list, templates, guides, and much more. Also included is a 190 slide first day of school PowerPoint presentation. This Unit is a digital download, but requires that you email me at ryemurf@gmail.com after checkout so I can send it to you through another company because it is too large for the TpT uploader. I use another company called PayLoadz.com which can send large files. TpT only sends me your user name on a digital download good so you will need to contact me with your email address so I can send it to you digitally. The cost of this larger unit is $9.99 The unit takes between 40-60 minutes to download once I have sent it to you but this unit is well worth the wait. Everything arrives in editable format and can be modified to fit any curriculum or time requirement.
