Ships
travelling
between
Lake
Ontario
and
Lake
Erie
use
the
Welland
Canal.
Beginning
with
a
conversation
between
characters
Mathise,
Geo,
and
Trig,
they
explain
how
a
lock
in
the
canal
operates
by
gravity
alone,
without
pumps.
The
characters
use
mathematics
to
solve
problems
such
as
how
long
the
locks
take
to
fill
and
how
to
express
the
volume
and
flow
of
water
in
more
common
terms
(bathtubs

In
this
lesson,
students
download
cloud
and
surface
data
from
the
NASA
CERES
S-COOL
website
student
observation
database,
then
develop
and
compare
graphs
to
explore
the
relationships
between
surface
temperature,
pressure,
and
humidity.
Students
then
investigate
possible
patterns
in
cloud-types
and
the
surface
conditions
for
several
locations
on
a
particular
date
of
their
choice
from
the
S-COOL
data.

In
this
activity
students
construct
a
sundial
and
use
it
to
observe
the
movement
of
the
sun
through
the
sky
over
the
course
of
a
day
by
marking
changes
in
the
position
of
a
shadow
once
each
hour.
Students
determine
the
approximate
time
of
solar
noon
at
their
school
as
indicated
by
the
time
of
the
shortest
shadow.
They
revisit
the
site
on
a
subsequent
day
to
estimate
the
time
of
day
using
their
sundial.

The
purpose
of
this
activity
is
to
discover
why
an
instrument
shelter
is
built
the
way
it
is.
Students
construct
shelters
that
have
varying
properties
and
place
them
in
the
same
location
or
place
similar
shelters
in
different
locations
and
compare
temperature
data
taken
in
each
shelter.
Students
should
predict
what
will
happen
for
each
of
the
different
shelter
designs
or
placements
and
perform
the
