Science: Weather Patterns and Climate
Episode 1 – 6.3.1 - Water is found in Earth's systems.
Today we will be investigating
Water Drop investigation: Make hypothesis about what will happen.
Brainstorm where water is found, make word lists, then sort into categories. Map where you think water would be in it's different forms.

Objective 1 - Understand the processes of revolution
This lesson begins with a simulation that will you feel what it was like to be a part of different estates in France prior to the French Revolution.
Korg’s revolution - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb1ztV93dsE
While we are discussing revolutions, processes, causes and effects, as well as the key figures of selected revolutions, be thinking of a revolution that you would like to focus on to create a pamphlet for.
Episode 2 - 6.3.1 - Water is tranferred and stored in reservoirs as it moves through Earth's systems.
Today you will Identify the ways we find water on the earth and construct an explanation.

Explore GPM - What is it? What are the benefits?
Objective 1 - Understand the processes of revolution
Today we will be breaking out into small groups to research various revolutions, and will then teach other groups about your selected revolution
Episode 3 - 6.3.1 -There are energy and forces that cause water to be transferred from reservoir to reservoir.
Today you will develop a model of how energy from the sun, density and gravitational forces cause the transfer of water from reservoir to reservoir.
