This week in Geography we started talking about weather. We talked atmospheric pressure, pressure gradient, High and Low pressure and how wind affects these and how they are displayed with an isobar map. We learned about the different layers of the atmosphere and how these affect weather. We touched on things like the jet stream, the coriolis affect and how these play in (I will provide a bit more on this next week). We spent time talking about atmospheric circulation and how this works through the tri cell model. Students completed an assignment on the layers in the atmosphere and are in the process of completing an assignment on the tri cell models of atmospheric circulation and putting this together with climate through climate graphs.
Here are a few videos to help you with your learning:
