As you count down the days to winter break, you’ll notice the correlation between the number of days left and the length of your students’ attention spans.
\nHarness the crazy pre-break energy and keep your students engaged and learning with these winter-themed science video lessons!
\nIn this lesson, students will describe how living in a group helps reindeer protect themselves from predators.
\nAnimal Groups and Survival (Reindeer)
\nIn this lesson, students will use models and data to describe patterns in how the length of day changes through the seasons by looking at how, for parts of the year, the sun never sets in polar regions.
Video length: 7 mins. 11 secs.
Patterns (Earth’s Rotation)
\nIn this lesson, students will distinguish between weather and climate by examining an unusual weather event (snow in the Sahara Desert).
Video length: 7 mins. 23 secs.
Climate vs. Weather (Snow in the Desert)
\nIn this lesson, students will identify avalanches as a weather-related hazard and make a claim about the effectiveness of avalanche mitigation techniques.
Video length: 8 mins. 38 secs.
Seasonal Weather Patterns (Planned Avalanches)
\nIn this lesson, students will compare the summer and winter fur coats of snowshoe hares and construct an argument that one external structure can serve many functions.
Video length: 7 mins. 15 secs.
Internal and External Structures (Snowshoe Hare)
\nIn this lesson, students will compare the summer and winter fur coats of snowshoe hares and construct an argument that one external structure can serve many functions.
Video length: 6 mins. 43 secs.
In this lesson, students will use models of water molecules in order to explain the structure of snowflakes.
\nAtoms (Snowflakes)
\nIn this lesson, students will develop models to show how heat moves from warm to cold via the motion of particles in order to explain why a tongue will freeze onto a cold metal pole.
Video length: 6 mins. 39 secs.
Thermal Energy (Frozen Tongue)
\nIn this lesson, students will investigate why a tongue can freeze to cold metal, developing models to show that heat moves from warm areas to cold via the motion of particles.
Video length: 6 mins. 42 secs.
