1. Linking Evidence to Explanation in Global Science Lawrence Hall of Science Bishop Museum

2. 2 Earth Science Stories Going with the Flow - How wind, water temperature, and salinity effect formation of ocean currents & current impacts on human life Center of the Storm - An exploration of the flow of energy in the Earth system - how uneven heating of the Earth leads to the development of storms

3. Going with the Flow Drawing from two activites in Ocean Currents - Waste Disposal & Ocean Routes Main questions/points Where do things placed in the ocean end up? Water of different temperatures and salinities contributes to the creation of current Wind contributes in the creation of currents Ocean current impact our interaction

4. Center of the Storm Based on the “Thunderstorms & Tornados” chapter of Global Systems Science’s Energy Flow Main Questions/Points: What do storms look like from above? Does the Earth heat evenly? Global wind patterns Cyclones - the collisons between warm and cold air masses

5. Two Interactive Learning Modules Tools in each moduleDescription 2-4 Visual sequences for display on spherical systems Each will include one or more of following: Layers added to NOAA data to aid viewer interpretation Place holders & instructions for relevant local callouts Hands-on demo video 3 “scripts” Audio track for each visual sequence that can be linked into a playlist as an autoplay sequence (8-10 minutes) “Script” for facilitated presentation - a combination of questions trees & scripted narrative for live presentation Lesson plan for 45 minute workshop including hands-on activities conducted in sphere space. Supporting handoutsPrevist materials for teachers Pencil & paper activities - along LHS PASS model Post visit activities Guide to Module- Documentation for each of three modes and suggestions for combining elements to create custom experiences
