Thunderstorms Miss Spinelli’s 4 th Grade Science Class Objectives: You will be able to define thunderstorms. You will have a better understanding of lighting and thunder. You will be able to analyze what is happening before a storm. Click to interact!

Click on the lightening to hear a real thunderstorm!

Warm air? Warm air? Cold air? Cold air? Both? Both? Click on them to find out more!

Yes! Warm air is needed to produce a thunderstorm, but we will need something else. Click back to see what else is needed! GO BACK

Yes! Cold air is needed to produce a thunderstorm, but we will need something else. Click back to see what else is needed! GO BACK

Lightening can be very dangerous During a thunderstorm lightening can heat up the air directly around it up to 30,000 degrees! Stay away from electrical devices during storms and large bodies of water!

Click on the link below to watch thunder and lightening in action!

There are about 1800 thunderstorms happening at the same time across the world We can see lightening before we hear the sound of thunder. Why? Because light travels faster than sound! Find more facts here! nderstorm-facts.html Some thunderstorms produce hail. It can be as big as a golf ball and can fall at a speed more than 100 mph! Lightening can strike outside of the storm area up to 10 miles away from where the rain is falling!

Standards: NETS 2. Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments 3. Model Digital-Age Work and Learning 5. Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership OH- Ohio Academic Content Standards Subject : Science Standard : Earth and Space Sciences: Students demonstrate an understanding about how Earth systems and processes interact in the geosphere resulting in the habitability of Earth. This includes demonstrating an understanding of the composition of the Universe, the Solar System and Earth. In addition, it includes understanding the properties and the interconnected nature of Earth’s systems, processes that shape the Earth and Earth’s history. Students also demonstrate an understanding of how the concepts and principles of energy, matter, motion and forces explain Earth systems, the Solar System, and the Universe. Finally, they grasp an understanding of the historical perspectives, scientific approaches and emerging scientific issues associated with Earth and space sciences. Grade : Grade Four Area : Earth Systems Grade Level Indicator : 7: Describe the weather which accompanies cumulus, cumulonimbus, cirrus and stratus clouds.
