Introduction
Students will develope a better understanding of different types of weather.  Students can research, write and draw  a description of what they have seen.
sert a brief overview of your lesson plan. Remember teachers are your target audience on this page. You might want to edit this section after you have finished designing your lesson. At that time you'll have a better idea of your lesson plan highlights.

Investigation and Experimentation
4. Scientific progress is made by asking meaningful questions and conducting careful
investigations. As a basis for understanding this concept and addressing the content
in the other three strands, students should develop their own questions and perform
investigations. Students will:
a. Make predictions based on observed patterns and not random guessing.
d. Write or draw descriptions of a sequence of steps, events, and observations.
g. Follow oral instructions for a scientific investigation.

WRITING
2.0 Writing Applications (Genres and Their Characteristics)
Students write compositions that describe and explain familiar objects, events, and
experiences. Student writing demonstrates a command of standard American English
and the drafting, research, and organizational strategies outlined in Writing Standard 1.0.
Using the writing strategies of grade two outlined in Writing Standard 1.0, students:


2.1 Write brief narratives based on their experiences:
a. Move through a logical sequence of events.
b. Describe the setting, characters, objects, and events in detail.

Instructional Objectives
Insert your learning objectives here. For example:
  1. After viewing an animation of continental movement on a laser disk, students will be able to arrange the fit of the continents with continental puzzle pieces.
  2. After analyzing information from an Encarta CD, students will be able to compare the distribution of fossils, rock types and ancient climatic zones on different continents as evidence for plate tectonics by fitting puzzle pieces marked by these special features.
  3. Students will be able to draw a diagram of the earth’s layers.
  4. After collecting information from The Earth CD, students will be able to locate earthquakes, volcanoes and mid ocean ridges as evidence for plate tectonics.
  5. After viewing a laser disc geology chapter, students will be able to pass a true/false quiz on lithospheric plates and layers of the earth.
  6. Students will be able to identify the major geologic events that result from plate motions in a Power Point multimedia presentation.
  7. Students will be able to present their findings on the sixth grade plate tectonics and Earth’s structure standards in a Power Point multimedia presentation to an audience of peers and adults, including the World Geologic Society.
  8. Students will be able to write, edit and revise their findings on the sixth grade plate tectonics and Earth’s structure standards using correct grammar, spelling and punctuation.
