ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:
Bring thunderstorms to life with our colorful model!
Thunderstorms are dramatic examples of weather that happen thousands of times a day across the planet! Teach why thunderstorms happen and the life cycle of a thunderstorm in an engaging way with our model.
First, your students make their models. Then, they use them to look at what causes moist warm air to rise high into the atmosphere leading to a thunderstorm. Next, they look at how a thunderstorm grows, matures and dissipates. An optional activity is included to explain atmospheric instability.
The model covers air rising over mountains, convergence, gust fronts, cold fronts, life cycle of a thunderstorm and atmospheric instability.
Takes about 30 minutes to build the model!
Origami Organelles are downloadable paper models that you print and make as many times as you like! When you purchase a model, you are licensed for unlimited use on a single site or campus.
