Instruments Review: Peer Scripts jstratton6 https://padlet.com/jstratton6/PLweathervariables/wish/243817286 You will complete 3 scripts on the barometer, sling psychrometer, and anemometer

One student will be the "teacher." The teacher will read the script, model with the instrument, and question peers.

Switch roles for the second & third scripts.]]> 2018-03-20 02:08:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jstratton6/PLweathervariables/wish/243817286 4. TOTD jstratton6 https://padlet.com/jstratton6/PLweathervariables/wish/243817957 Complete 3-2-1 TOTD (in basket on Teacher's desk)

Predict how the Dewpoint & Relative Humidity would change if we used a bigger beaker? A smaller beaker?

Analyze the relationship between Dewpoint and Relative Humidity

Critique our model of relative humidity. How is the sponge a good/bad model for air?
