This
site
is
designed
to
belie
the
statement
that
the
greenhouse
effect
is
caused
when
gases
in
the
atmosphere
behave
as
a
blanket
and
trap
radiation
which
is
then
reradiated
to
the
Earth.
Students
will
learn
that
the
atmosphere
does
not
act
like
a
blanket,
trap
radiation,
reradiate
heat,
trap
heat,
or
behave
like
a
greenhouse.
In
addition,
the
analogy
of
a
closed
automobile
in
the
sun
to
a
greenhouse

This
activity
has
students
use
a
model
to
investigate
factors
in
greenhouse
heating
and
cooling.
The
type
of
surface
that
sunlight
first
encounters
is
the
most
important
factor.
Forests,
grasslands,
ocean
surfaces,
ice
caps,
deserts,
and
cities
all
absorb,
reflect,
and
radiate
radiation
differently.
As
a
result
of
this
activity
students
will
be
able
to
identify
at
least
three
factors
affecting
the

In
this
activity,
students
investigate
how
different
surfaces
absorb
heat
and
apply
their
experience
with
the
surfaces
to
interpret
real-world
situations.
From
this
information,
they
come
to
understand
that
the
physical
characteristics
of
a
surface
have
a
powerful
effect
on
the
way
that
surface
absorbs
and
releases
heat
from
the
sun
and
that
radiation
of
heat
occurs
without
the
involvement
of
a
physical

This
activity
is
designed
to
familiarize
students
with
how
a
greenhouse
retains
heat
by
building
simple
models.
As
a
result
of
this
activity,
students
will
come
to
understand
that
greenhouses
are
useful
because
they
both
allow
sunlight
to
enter
and
prevent
heat
from
escaping.
The
transparent
covering
of
the
greenhouse
allows
visible
light
to
enter
unhindered,
where
it
warms
the
interior
as
it
is
absorbed

This
paper
presents
the
results
of
a
study
that
includes
some
basic
concepts
about
the
weather,
how
some
children
misunderstand
these
concepts,
and
possible
reasons
for
the
misunderstandings.
Student
misconceptions
can
provide
an
opening
for
instruction.
When
teachers
know
what
their
students
are
thinking
about
a
topic
they
can
tailor
experiments
and
activities
which
challenge
the
students'
thinking.
