Transcript Welcome to Science!

Good afternoon!
BELL Work (5 min.)
Set up today’s pages – 76-77
Answer this question under the IN:
Describe a weather event that you’ve experienced
such as a hurricane, bad thunderstorm, hailstorm,
or anything else weather related.
Then, Get your book from the back cabinet.

OBJECTIVES & LEARNING GOALS:
GEOLOGISTS CAN:
Define air pressure and explain how it changes with
altitude.
Describe the four major layers of the atmosphere
including the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere,
and thermosphere and explain how temperature &
pressure change within each layer.
Level 4 I can compare and contrast the four major layers of the atmosphere
(troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere) in terms
of temperature and pressure and explain how they contribute to life
on Earth.
Level 3 I can list the four layers of the atmosphere, explain how temperature
and pressure change in each layer, and describe how it protects life
and insulates our planet.
Level 2 I can list the layers of the atmosphere and how they protect life on our
planet.
Level 1 With help I can explain how the atmosphere protects our planet.
Watch the Can!!
Can you
explain why
this happens?
 What about a larger can?
Complete the Quick Intro Lab
at your table
Complete using our Fusion book, p. 568-571.
It protects us from Sun’s harmful
radiation and maintains “just right”
temperature range.
We must have the right temperature
to have liquid water.
It is held in place by gravity.
The measure of the force with which air
molecules push on an area of a surface.
Air pressure decreases with increasing altitude.
There are fewer molecules of air so the
amount of Oxygen is less.

atmosphere are related.
