Weather Project Introduction -- Weather PBL 2018

How does weather affect the lives of human populations throughout the world?

This is our driving question for this project.  This week you will be creating Google Slideshow presentations on this question.  You will need to pick one climate or weather problem that has an effect on humans.  We will be presenting these slideshows to the class.

Suggestions:
Climate Change
Blizzards
Droughts
Floods
El Nino
Hurricanes
Tornadoes
Thunderstorms

Your Google Slideshow will need to include the following:

1.  A cover slide with your topic and the driving question.

2.  At least 10 slides which explain the following:
  • What causes your weather event?
  • What are the characteristics of this weather event?
  • What kind of damage can be caused by it?
  • How does it affect people?
  • How do humans react and respond to protect themselves?
3.  A final slide with a list of links and resources that you used to gather information.

    So, for the final slide, do we list links that were helpful or do we list them like a bibliography?

    1. I will go over this with the class. However, this will not be as formal as a bibliography. This will be more of a list of links you used for research.

  2. I know this has nothing to do with this post. On the noun worksheet on the side that says "what is a noun" do we have to list the noun in each sentence or is there something else we have to do.

  3. One more question are we going to start our slide show tomorrow. And also are we going to research more for our project.

    1. We will be researching our slideshows tomorrow. It is possible that we will start them, but I need to see how far we get with the research.
