Mrs. Anna Ward Ridge Road MS Introduction to Weather & Atmosphere
Please read the article provided and answer the questions on the side board next to my desk. Warm UP!!! (Block 1—early arrival)
Welcome to Quarter 2 • Fresh start Day #2 • REMIND 101 • Text the code @mrswardssc to 980-734-3912 • Updates and important reminders Announcements

PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS CLOSELY. • For this exercise, you will use: • Clear Jars • Dried Brown Beans • Dried Black Beans • Dried Red Beans What’s UP in the air???
Think back to our DO NOW…. On the Bottom of Page 3, record the following data: • 78% of Earth’s Atmosphere is comprised of NITROGEN • 21% of Earth’s Atmosphere is comprised of OXYGEN • 1% of the Earth’s Atmosphere is comprised of OTHER GASSES (Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Water Vapor, etc.) What’s up in the air
Each of the beans will represent a gas found in our atmosphere. • 78 Brown Beans will represent Nitrogen in your jar • 21BlackBeans will represent Oxygen in your jar • 1 Red Bean will represent all the other gasses. build the Earth’s Atmosphere in your Jar.
Density: The mass per unit of volume Altitude: The distance above sea level when discussing the atmosphere Air pressure: Some important vocabulary:
Air has mass, because it is made up of molecules of gas (Nitrogen, Oxygen, etc.) Gravity exerts a force on these molecules, pulling them closer to the surface of the Earth and holding them there
