  1. Process of Science “I haven’t failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” –Thomas Edison • Observation • Idea • Hypothesis • Experiment • Results & Analysis

  2. Weather vs. Climate • Weather: the conditions of the atmosphere over a short period of time • Example: day to day, week to week, or season to season • Climate: the average weather patterns for an extended period of time • Example: Antarctica vs. Hawaii www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBdxDFpDp_k

  3. Climate Change • The change in Earth’s climate due to natural processes and human activities https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlkprv-Upco

  4. Weather Balloon!! • How are we going to get it into space? • How are we going to get it safely back down? • How are we going to find it when it lands?

  5. Gravity • The force that pulls objects toward the center of the Earth • What happens if I drop a pencil? • What about our balloon? • How will we counter the affects of gravity? DENSITY!

  6. What’s in air? • 78% Nitrogen • 21% Oxygen • 1% Argon • What about the rest?! There are a lot of different gases in air, but most of them only occur in tiny amounts!
