| 00:00:11 | Okay. The bells are kind of messed up so we will- I will probably just go ahead and dismiss you. We're now starting like five minutes late, | 
| 00:00:19 | because they didn't get the bells working right. | 
| 00:00:22 | All right, who is absent? Anybody? | 
| 00:00:25 | I don't know. | 
| 00:00:27 | You don't know? Do you know who sits at your table normally? | 
| 00:00:31 | //He's missing. Who is he? | 
| 00:00:32 | //I don't know who is supposed to- | 
| 00:00:33 | Devin is not here. | 
| 00:00:34 | No. He's //here. | 
| 00:00:34 | //Devin is gone. | 
| 00:00:35 | He's here. | 
| 00:00:36 | Right. He's here. | 
| 00:00:41 | Jessica, I'm gonna have you move to- | 
| 00:00:47 | Yeah, a table of three people, not the one that's got four. | 
| 00:00:52 | All right, so nobody is absent? Everybody is here? | 
| 00:00:55 | Yeah. | 
| 00:00:58 | Okay. | 
| 00:01:04 | Um, I'm not going to return your papers today. I'll save that for tomorrow. We'll get right into what we're going to be talking about today. | 
| 00:01:13 | There's just a couple of things that I needed to go over with you first that I'm not sure that you got it before. | 
| 00:01:22 | Yes? Writing your homework books? Okay. | 
| 00:01:29 | All right. Open up your book. What? | 
| 00:01:34 | I can't hear out of my ear. | 
| 00:01:35 | What's wrong? | 
| 00:01:36 | It hurts. | 
| 00:01:38 | Did you ever go to the doctor? | 
| 00:01:39 | Yeah. | 
| 00:01:40 | Miss A, (inaudible). | 
| 00:01:41 | What? | 
| 00:01:42 | (inaudible). | 
| 00:01:42 | Okay. Take these right here. Go. Bye. They must feel like they have the plague or something. | 
| 00:01:52 | All right. You ready? | 
| 00:01:53 | Yeah. | 
| 00:01:54 | Okay. On page- open your book to page 588. | 
| 00:01:58 | There are- | 
| 00:02:06 | some weather maps. There's actually four weather maps on those pages that are in front of you. | 
| 00:02:11 | They are showing a progression of weather over a four-day period? Three-day period, okay. Where the weather is going. | 
| 00:02:21 | Looking at those four maps, looking at the one on the page before that- flip one page back- | 
| 00:02:32 | Okay? And looking on the page after that- flip two pages, forward- | 
| 00:02:42 | So you're looking at page 587, 88, 89, and 90- find the high pressure centers; | 
| 00:02:57 | find the low pressure centers, | 
| 00:03:02 | on any one of those five or six maps, | 
| 00:03:06 | find the cold fronts and the warm fronts. | 
| 00:03:11 | Okay, now here's a puzzle for you. What do you notice about fronts and pressure centers? | 
| 00:03:19 | What do you notice about the fronts and the high pressure; and the fronts and the low pressure? | 
| 00:03:26 | Look- and you gotta look at the map in order to answer the question. | 
| 00:03:31 | And if you can't figure it out with one map, move to another map. | 
| 00:03:37 | Make some comparisons. | 
| 00:03:39 | What pattern do you notice about fronts and pressure centers? | 
| 00:03:55 | I have a question. | 
| 00:03:55 | Mm. No- no, no. I'm waiting. | 
| 00:03:59 | I have a question. | 
| 00:03:59 | Oh. Question? Okay. | 
| 00:04:01 | Aren't the pointed ones the warm fronts? | 
| 00:04:03 | The pointed ones are the cold fronts. | 
| 00:04:06 | Okay. I was just making sure. | 
| 00:04:11 | I thought you were gonna answer the question. I am waiting for some people to get that look on their face, like, "oh." | 
| 00:04:22 | Stuart, are you noticing anything? | 
| 00:04:28 | Is there something you're noticing about the high pressure centers that is not the same as the low pressure centers? | 
| 00:04:41 | Besides the- besides the points? | 
| 00:04:44 | Besides the what? | 
| 00:04:45 | The points, the triangle- | 
| 00:04:47 | What about the points? | 
| 00:04:49 | That there's like more(inaudible)- | 
| 00:04:52 | There's no triangles where? | 
| 00:04:53 | No. There's more triangles- | 
| 00:04:54 | Oh. | 
| 00:04:55 | Than there's (inaudible). | 
| 00:04:58 | Oh. Okay. So there's more cold fronts than warm fronts? | 
| 00:05:00 | Yeah. | 
| 00:05:01 | Okay, but what about the low pressure centers and what about the high pressure centers? | 
| 00:05:15 | Mike, what do you think? | 
| 00:05:16 | I think that there's low pressure centers on the cold fronts and the warm fronts too. Like on a front //there's like a- | 
| 00:05:23 | //And what about the high pressure centers? | 
| 00:05:26 | They are moving away from the front. | 
| 00:05:28 | They don't seem to have fronts attached to them, do they? | 
| 00:05:32 | No. | 
| 00:05:33 | You notice that, John? | 
| 00:05:34 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:05:34 | Look at all the low pressure centers. Do you see fronts attached to them? | 
| 00:05:40 | No. Can you tell me why? Remember the balloon thing? Can you tell me why? John, what do you think? | 
| 00:05:49 | Uh, when it hits the hot air, it would like go above it. Like- | 
| 00:05:56 | So you got a warm air mass and a cold air mass? | 
| 00:05:58 | Yes. And when it hits- I remember, but- I remember it, but it's hard to explain. | 
| 00:06:06 | Okay. You're saying the warm air rises above that cold air? | 
| 00:06:09 | Yes. | 
| 00:06:10 | Okay. | 
| 00:06:11 | And the- | 
| 00:06:15 | And the warm air has what kind of pressure? | 
| 00:06:18 | Low pressure. | 
| 00:06:19 | Okay. Mark, did you have something to add? | 
| 00:06:21 | No. I was gonna say (inaudible). | 
| 00:06:24 | Okay. Let me show you a real easy way to really kind of understand it. I have three balloons this time, and they are different color. Red is? | 
| 00:06:34 | Cold. | 
| 00:06:35 | Warm. | 
| 00:06:36 | Warm air. Blue is? | 
| 00:06:37 | Cold. | 
| 00:06:38 | Cold, and yellow is? | 
| 00:06:39 | Warm. | 
| 00:06:40 | Is cooler. Let's say cooler. All right. Let's look up here for a second. | 
| 00:06:47 | And you'll even notice on this map there aren't any fronts attached to those low pressure centers, right? | 
| 00:06:53 | Just- or to the high pressure centers. Just to the low pressure centers, right? | 
| 00:06:57 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:06:58 | Okay. So where would the red balloon go? If this is the- what kind of front? | 
| 00:07:04 | Cold. | 
| 00:07:04 | Cold front. | 
| 00:07:05 | Then where's the warm air going to be? | 
| 00:07:07 | Going behind it. | 
| 00:07:09 | Behind it? This is the front of a warm air mass? | 
| 00:07:12 | Uh, no. It's gonna be in front of it. | 
| 00:07:14 | It's gonna be in front of it? | 
| 00:07:14 | Yeah. | 
| 00:07:15 | Okay. Where's the cold air gonna be? | 
| 00:07:17 | Behind it | 
| 00:07:18 | Behind it. And we'll put the yellow air up here, okay? This is where the low pressure center happens. Watch what happens. | 
| 00:07:25 | Here's the warm air. Here's the cold air. Here's the cool air. You see the hole in between the three? | 
| 00:07:32 | yeah | 
| 00:07:33 | There's your low pressure center. It's where those big bubbles of air have a depression, or an area, a gap, that space, | 
| 00:07:42 | that's the low. See? Yeah. | 
| 00:07:45 | Yeah. | 
| 00:07:46 | Ah. Okay? That's what you're looking at. You're looking at that bubble of warm air, the bubble of cold air behind. | 
| 00:07:53 | Here's the front right here, right? The front of the air mass, yes? | 
| 00:07:57 | And then where they all meet up- where these bubbles of air meet up, that's where that low pressure center comes in. | 
| 00:08:03 | The high pressure is going to be this big bubble of cold air at the very highest point of it as far as pressure goes. | 
| 00:08:14 | It's not gonna ever have a front because it occurs in like the middle of the air mass, okay? | 
| 00:08:20 | Okay. | 
| 00:08:20 | Get it? | 
| 00:08:21 | Yeah. | 
| 00:08:21 | Ooh. Yes? | 
| 00:08:23 | So then basically a tornado would be caused because of low pressure in the (inaudible)? | 
| 00:08:30 | Yes. That depression of low pressure air, right. What you got is air funneling in and air funneling up at the same time, | 
| 00:08:38 | and then once it starts to twist- when we see that video on "Understanding Weather," | 
| 00:08:43 | it's really cool because it shows the air funneling like this on the ground. What's that called? | 
| 00:08:49 | Conven- | 
| 00:08:51 | Convection current. | 
| 00:08:52 | Right. It shows that on the ground like a big tube doing that, and then when that- I think it showed cold air- hits it- excuse me- hits it, | 
| 00:09:02 | it- remember when I said the cold air hits that blue and the blue goes flying off- or the- | 
| 00:09:07 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:09:08 | Cold air hits the red and the warm air goes flying up? That's what causes the storm? | 
| 00:09:12 | What it shows is that that tube gets split and splits up this way, and that's the beginning of a funnel cloud. It's very cool. | 
| 00:09:21 | But you'll see that on the, uh, video. Okay. So does that help with low pressure and high pressure and- | 
| 00:09:27 | Yeah. | 
| 00:09:27 | //Yeah. | 
| 00:09:27 | //Okay? Kind of a visual. | 
| 00:09:29 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:09:29 | Okay. The reason you need to know that is because this is what you are going to be doing. | 
| 00:09:35 | First hour did not even finish the cities on their map which was kind of disappointing. I thought they'd get further than that. | 
| 00:09:43 | You do not need- and I won't let you use- your book or your notes. I was going to let you, and then I thought, | 
| 00:09:51 | "No, I think that you need to get that station model plugged into your head a little better than you have it." | 
| 00:09:57 | Okay? So you don't need any of that. You may use the map on page 770, I think. Check page 770 in your book. | 
| 00:10:12 | There should be, yep, a map of the United States. You also have a map like this at your table with all of the cities on it. | 
| 00:10:20 | Oh. They don't have one down there. | 
| 00:10:22 | Hannah, would- would you take that map down to the office and ask them to give it to the kids inside the conference room? | 
| 00:10:32 | Okay. | 
| 00:10:32 | Okay? I think they brought the map back from their- and then tell them to leave it there. Leave the pencils and the map, okay? | 
| 00:10:39 | All right, so you've got enough reference for finding certain cities. You're going to get a list of 12 cities in the United States. | 
| 00:10:47 | Oh, that stays on; this goes off. | 
| 00:10:49 | A list of 12 cities in the United States, with some other data. I told you this last week. | 
| 00:10:55 | And you're going to get a blank map that- handing out? | 
| 00:11:02 | (inaudible) | 
| 00:11:03 | Okay. Handing out? | 
| 00:11:05 | Here. (inaudible) | 
| 00:11:06 | Yeah. Daniel. | 
| 00:11:07 | I want to let Daniel do it, because she threw her hand out there first. I didn't think she wanted to get up, but she does. | 
| 00:11:13 | Okay. You're gonna get a sheet like this, that has all of the instructions that you need on it. | 
| 00:11:18 | What you are going to do is, on the map, in front of you- and put all your notes away right now- | 
| 00:11:24 | any notes, any... You can only have your book open at page 770. | 
| 00:11:45 | Okay. On the blue sheet is a list of the 12 cities, around the country. You might wanna make note that- | 
| 00:11:54 | Hatteras, fourth from the bottom, is actually called "Cape Hatteras"; | 
| 00:12:01 | most of you have probably never heard of it. You will, though, by the time we get done with oceans. | 
| 00:12:07 | It is in North Carolina. North Carolina. | 
| 00:12:12 | I'm not gonna show you where that is; you ought to know where North Carolina is. | 
| 00:12:17 | And, uh, Kansas City. There are two big Kansas Cities. We're talking about- thank you- Kansas City, Missouri. Okay? | 
| 00:12:26 | So you might wanna write "MO" after Kansas City, just so you remember where it's from. | 
| 00:12:38 | All right, who wants to read the directions? I'm gonna stop you a lot as you go through, and explain certain things. | 
| 00:12:43 | Mark, go ahead. | 
| 00:12:45 | "Locate and label each of the above cities on the attachment." | 
| 00:12:48 | Okay. The first thing you're going to do is find the cities, one at the time. Detroit, okay? | 
| 00:12:54 | When you find it on the map, you're gonna put the little dot where Detroit goes. | 
| 00:13:02 | Then you're gonna write "Detroit," but you've got to write small, and you've got to write neat, so that I can read it. | 
| 00:13:08 | Stuart, you haven't started yet, have you? | 
| 00:13:10 | No. | 
| 00:13:10 | Don't, because I- I've got to tell you the whole thing. | 
| 00:13:15 | Remember where Detroit goes on a station- a weather station model, right? | 
| 00:13:21 | Many of you forgot to put "Weather City" when you had to redo another station model on that worksheet. | 
| 00:13:27 | Lots of people did not put that city name. They put all the other stuff but didn't put the city. | 
| 00:13:32 | So when you write "Detroit," to the left of it make your circle right away and start building that station model. | 
| 00:13:42 | Otherwise, if you go through and write all the cities first, then you're gonna have to go back and make sure you've got room to put the station model. | 
| 00:13:50 | So do one city at a time, okay? Do you know what I'm saying? | 
| 00:13:53 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:13:53 | You got it? Yes? | 
| 00:13:53 | (inaudible)? | 
| 00:13:56 | Like this. I'll just start this first one just so you know. | 
| 00:13:59 | If you have got this part of Michigan right here, and you put the dot, you need to write "Detroit" over here, okay? | 
| 00:14:10 | And then start your station model right here. | 
| 00:14:15 | All right? A reminder that the wind direction is that arrow to the middle. | 
| 00:14:22 | All right? And- I'm trying to think what else they had trouble with. They had a little trouble last hour with cloud coverage in the circle. | 
| 00:14:31 | If you're not sure, ask someone at your table first before I come around to help you with that. Make sure you get it before- | 
| 00:14:37 | or somebody else- you've asked somebody else before you ask me, okay? | 
| 00:14:43 | Because you had the 25%, you had the 50%, and you had the 75% then you had full coverage. | 
| 00:14:47 | Remember what those meant because that's how they are on this sheet, okay? Okay. So there's your- any questions on the station model? | 
| 00:14:58 | You know where everything goes on there? There are only two cities with current conditions, and I'll put the symbols on the board. | 
| 00:15:04 | They're very simple, okay? So you don't need that chart either. Okay. Next one. Mark, keep going. | 
| 00:15:12 | "Construct a weather station map for each of the above cities. Place them at approximate locations." | 
| 00:15:18 | Appropriate locations. | 
| 00:15:20 | //Oh. | 
| 00:15:21 | //Yep. All right. Now, that's as far as everybody got for second hour, okay? Go ahead and read on, Mark. | 
| 00:15:27 | Place high and low pressure centers where you think that- where you think they would be located on the map. | 
| 00:15:33 | You're gonna have to look at what in order to do that? What's some indicators of high and low pressure? | 
| 00:15:41 | Oh, no. You know what we thought of last hour? Don't do this one. Put an arrow, four, five, and five to four. | 
| 00:15:48 | Do step five first. It'll make four a lot easier. Or three and four. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Wait, wait, wait. | 
| 00:15:55 | Do step four first and then go back up and do step three. Read step four, Mark, so I can explain what I mean there. | 
| 00:16:06 | Shade regions of precipitation. Place symbol for cold and warm fronts where they would most- most likely be located on the map. | 
| 00:16:15 | Okay. Do you see why I said to do this one first? | 
| 00:16:18 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:16:18 | When you find the areas of precipitation and then you find the cold and warm fronts, | 
| 00:16:25 | it should be a lot easier to put the low pressure and high pressure centers, right? Okay. | 
| 00:16:30 | So do number four first and then go back and do number three. When you shade for precipitation | 
| 00:16:39 | :if it's light rain, it's a light green; if it's medium rain, if they just say rain, then it's a yellow; and if it's a thunderstorm, then it's red. | 
| 00:16:48 | That's how the Doppler Radar satellite picture picks it up, okay? It's the density of the air is what they pick up, all right? | 
| 00:16:57 | Okay. Go ahead, Mark. | 
| 00:16:58 | Answer the following questions. Interpret the data using your (map weather). | 
| 00:17:04 | Explain the locations of high and low pressure centers in warm and cool fronts. | 
| 00:17:11 | Are there any environmental or severe weather incidents that may occur? Include the weather indications in the map. | 
| 00:17:20 | Use your weather map to explain the above answer. | 
| 00:17:24 | Okay. This will be on a separate sheet of paper- probably won't get it until about the middle of class tomorrow- | 
| 00:17:29 | where now you have to explain why you put everything on your map where you put it, okay? | 
| 00:17:35 | So you're kind of explaining yourself: low pressure, high pressure. And hopefully you'll be able to do that. | 
| 00:17:41 | I think you can, if you allow yourself to think in that direction. Okay, and then six. | 
| 00:17:49 | "Using the data on the weather, forecast the weather for October 24th, 2002, for each of the cities of the (inaudible)- | 
| 00:17:58 | Okay. Are there any questions about what I expect you to do? No? | 
| 00:18:06 | So I will be able to just sit here the whole time you're doing this and just watch you like last hour? Todd? | 
| 00:18:15 | I don't get "shade regions of precipitation." | 
| 00:18:19 | Okay. On the map that you had to do for the weather station models, they told you to shade the areas of precipitation. | 
| 00:18:25 | The same way that this map did- you see how they shaded these areas? Where it's raining. | 
| 00:18:33 | And once you get done with all your station models, you'll be able to see it better. | 
| 00:18:36 | You'll look for the cloudy areas, and then from that you'll look for the rainy areas. | 
| 00:18:40 | Now I know, I just- I thought you meant to do four completely first. | 
| 00:18:44 | No. No. Well, yeah. You're gonna do four first before you do three. | 
| 00:18:49 | I know that, but I thought- | 
| 00:18:50 | Oh, no. Not before two though, right. Okay. Got ya. | 
| 00:18:54 | Jeff? | 
| 00:18:54 | Do you work as a group or- | 
| 00:18:55 | You work as a group, yes. | 
| 00:18:57 | Okay. | 
| 00:18:57 | Which means talking quietly about the mapping activity, not about what you did over the weekend, okay? | 
| 00:19:07 | Yes, Wes? | 
| 00:19:07 | I'm really not sure about these, uh, models we have to put down. | 
| 00:19:12 | Okay. | 
| 00:19:16 | I don't quite understand them. | 
| 00:19:14 | Did you do that worksheet last week? | 
| 00:19:16 | Which one? | 
| 00:19:17 | The one that you were supposed to turn in for a grade on Friday. | 
| 00:19:20 | I'm not sure. | 
| 00:19:21 | You had "weather city" and then "around the circle" which had cloudiness in it. | 
| 00:19:29 | I don't remember anything like that. I remember most of last week. | 
| 00:19:32 | All right, I'm not sure you turned it in. | 
| 00:19:34 | I'm not sure either. | 
| 00:19:36 | Okay. We'll see what your group can help you with. | 
| 00:19:40 | Okay. | 
| 00:19:42 | Jeff? | 
| 00:19:42 | I was wondering if I could move right next to Geoffrey so we- | 
| 00:19:46 | Sure. Mark? | 
| 00:19:47 | When we're like doing Detroit, you said- do you want us to write- | 
| 00:19:51 | like go through and write all the cities and then go and do the weather stations, or do the city and then the weather station? | 
| 00:19:56 | Somebody want to answer Mark's question? | 
| 00:19:59 | Do the weather- the city and the weather station together. | 
| 00:20:02 | Okay. | 
| 00:20:04 | Don't go- don't do all the cities first and then go back and do the stations because you might write the name of the city in the wrong place, | 
| 00:20:10 | and you won't be able to fit the weather station around it. Hannah? | 
| 00:20:14 | Okay. What do we do for, like, the current conditions? | 
| 00:20:20 | Okay. There are only two. Thanks for that. There are only two. Let me pull this up. | 
| 00:20:28 | They call it on those dir- and that's actual data information from last Wednesday, the 23rd, straight off the Weather Channel. | 
| 00:20:36 | When you're all done, I'm going to give you the actual satellite map with the warm fronts and cold fronts and high and low pressures. | 
| 00:20:43 | You're gonna compare that to what you came up with on your map. I'm looking at probably Wednesday by the time we get to that. | 
| 00:20:52 | Then you're- you're gonna forecast at the bottom. Your last step is gonna be a forecast. | 
| 00:20:56 | Then you're gonna look at what happened the next day and see how well your forecast came out, okay? | 
| 00:21:01 | Uh, but on the Weather Channel, instead of calling it intermittent rain, they call it light rain. So this is the symbol for light rain. | 
| 00:21:10 | I know it's tough, and I don't know if you're gonna be able to remember it, but that's light rain, okay? | 
| 00:21:17 | There are no thunderstorms, none of that, all the fancy stuff they had on that chart. And guess what this is? | 
| 00:21:23 | Snow. | 
| 00:21:25 | Light snow. | 
| 00:21:26 | If it were heavy snow, there would be two of them. Oops. Okay? | 
| 00:21:34 | Any other questions? Yes, Wes? | 
| 00:21:38 | So if it was heavy rain, there would be two //little footnotes? | 
| 00:21:41 | //Two dots, yep. Yep. | 
| 00:21:44 | Can I have a pencil? I only brought a pen. | 
| 00:21:47 | Yeah. If you need a pencil, let me know. Don't try to do this in pen. It's too- too much erasing going on. | 
| 00:21:54 | Yes, Mitch? Question? | 
| 00:21:55 | When we shade these, what colors did they- do you want us to have them? | 
| 00:21:59 | I have a box of pencils right up- colored pencils. I did. Right up here. Whatever color you want except red or blue. | 
| 00:22:08 | Oops. You needed this. | 
| 00:22:11 | Whatever color you want except red or blue, okay? All right. If there are no more questions, get started. | 
| 00:22:20 | I'm gonna put this away so I don't trip on it. | 
| 00:22:28 | Yes? | 
| 00:22:29 | I need a pencil. | 
| 00:22:29 | Okay. Go back over there and get one from where I got it, top- that little top drawer. Mark, did you have a question? | 
| 00:22:35 | I don't like sitting next to a wall. | 
| 00:22:39 | (inaudible) | 
| 00:22:39 | Why? | 
| 00:22:41 | (inaudible) | 
| 00:22:43 | On the wall? Do you want me to move you up here? | 
| 00:22:47 | No, that's all right. | 
| 00:22:47 | Oh. I thought so. Christina? | 
| 00:22:50 | Can I sharpen my pencil? | 
| 00:22:51 | Yes, you may sharpen your pencil. | 
| 00:22:53 | Can I sharpen my pencil, too? | 
| 00:22:55 | Yeah. You guys are supposed to do this beforehand. | 
| 00:23:05 | Okay. Let's see if I can talk you through this. You wrote "the city of Detroit." | 
| 00:23:10 | And then there was a circle next to it so just draw a circle, a relatively large circle. | 
| 00:23:18 | Okay. Now- no. Don't fill it in. Just a //circle. | 
| 00:23:20 | //Oh. | 
| 00:23:22 | And I just said "use a pencil." Is that a pencil? | 
| 00:23:23 | Yes. | 
| 00:23:24 | Oh. That's a cool pencil. Okay. An open circle. Now, in the circle you have four choices. | 
| 00:23:35 | These are your choices: mostly sunny- no. Clear, mostly sunny, partly cloudy, mostly cloudy, cloudy. That's it. Five of them. Okay? | 
| 00:23:48 | That would be cloudy, wouldn't it? | 
| 00:23:50 | And they are- it's saying cloudy. And they are represented by how much you shade that circle. | 
| 00:23:55 | So that would be about 50% probably? | 
| 00:23:57 | Actually, cloudy is gonna be all shaded. | 
| 00:24:00 | Okay. | 
| 00:24:00 | Okay? | 
| 00:24:03 | And let me see your pencil for a minute, and I'll draw them on the back so you can- all right. | 
| 00:24:08 | This one is totally unshaded so that's going to be what? | 
| 00:24:13 | Uh, sunny. | 
| 00:24:14 | Clear. Yeah. Sunny or clear. This one is gonna be a quarter shaded. | 
| 00:24:19 | This one is gonna be- let's do them all first and then you can compare. This one is gonna be this way. | 
| 00:24:28 | And that one is gonna be completely- and you know this one's cloudy and this one's clear. | 
| 00:24:32 | Okay? So now your other options are mostly cloudy, mostly sunny or partly cloudy. | 
| 00:24:40 | Okay. So that would be sunny, partly- that would be sunny, that would be partly cloudy, mostly cloudy, right? No. No. | 
| 00:24:51 | Okay. If- | 
| 00:24:52 | //Oh, boy. | 
| 00:24:53 | //That's all right. Relax. If that's clear, then this is like mostly clear or mostly? | 
| 00:25:01 | S :00] | 
| 00:25:02 | Mostly clear or mostly? If this one's sunny- | 
| 00:25:08 | Mostly sunny. | 
| 00:25:08 | Okay. This one is mostly sunny. Now you've got mostly cloudy and partly cloudy and these two left. | 
| 00:25:16 | Which one's mostly cloudy and which one's partly cloudy? What's that one? | 
| 00:25:20 | Mostly cloudy. | 
| 00:25:22 | What's that one? | 
| 00:25:22 | Partly cloudy. | 
| 00:25:23 | Okay. So you've got- | 
| 00:25:26 | Sunny, clear. | 
| 00:25:27 | Yeah. Sunny or clear. | 
| 00:25:30 | Mostly sunny, partly cloudy, mostly cloudy, cloudy. | 
| 00:25:34 | Beautiful. | 
| 00:25:35 | Detroit was easy, but you're gonna get to some other ones that- okay? | 
| 00:25:40 | All right, now, the next thing that you have to figure out is where the temperature goes and where the dew point goes. | 
| 00:25:46 | You guys, you have humidity information. Does it go on the weather station model anywhere? | 
| 00:25:52 | No. | 
| 00:25:54 | No. | 
| 00:25:54 | No. We didn't put humidity on there, did we? | 
| 00:25:57 | So I don't need- | 
| 00:25:59 | (inaudible) | 
| 00:25:58 | Well, just- you don't need it right now. You'll need it to answer some questions, but you don't need it on the weather station model. Mark? | 
| 00:26:04 | For Detroit how is eight mile an hour- (you got us around 10). | 
| 00:26:08 | Eight-mile-an-hour wind- I told you last week, your choice. It's either a five- you listening, Geoffrey? | 
| 00:26:15 | Eight-mile-an-hour wind is either a five or a 10. Your choice. | 
| 00:26:20 | If you show me three long lines there, I'm gonna know you didn't know what you were doing, okay? All right. | 
| 00:26:27 | Do you remember where temperature went? | 
| 00:26:31 | Right above it. | 
| 00:26:34 | Yeah. Right above it to the left. | 
| 00:26:42 | Okay. And then dew point went? | 
| 00:26:46 | Upper right a bit? | 
| 00:26:48 | Below left. | 
| 00:26:55 | Okay? You've got the city there. Do you remember what goes above the city on this thing? | 
| 00:27:02 | The pressure? | 
| 00:27:02 | Yep. | 
| 00:27:04 | Then we do- write on the left. | 
| 00:27:09 | Pressure is on the left. | 
| 00:27:13 | When you do the pressure, make sure you show falling, steady or rising, either with the letters or the arrows. | 
| 00:27:18 | Rising would be just shooting straight across, a horizontal line. | 
| 00:27:26 | Okay. So, now, if you're not doing humidity, the only thing you have left is wind speed and direction. Do you remember how that was represented? | 
| 00:27:34 | Um, (by an arrow). | 
| 00:27:35 | Huh? | 
| 00:27:35 | By an arrow. | 
| 00:27:36 | An arrow that's shooting into the circle. | 
| 00:27:38 | Right. | 
| 00:27:40 | And it is a //northeast wind, so- | 
| 00:27:40 | //North... in this area down here? That way? | 
| 00:27:43 | That's northwest. | 
| 00:27:44 | You're thinking of, like, Las Vegas and Nevada. | 
| 00:27:45 | Yeah. | 
| 00:27:49 | If you have trouble remembering your directions, make little compass rows at the top of your map. | 
| 00:27:55 | Ah. | 
| 00:27:55 | Ah. | 
| 00:28:04 | Let's see if I find the state. | 
| 00:28:06 | (Do we do that) (inaudible)? | 
| 00:28:08 | No. You don't need to worry- all of these weather- or all of the wind directions are in either northeast or south- or south- | 
| 00:28:14 | I didn't put east, northeast or- | 
| 00:28:16 | Okay. | 
| 00:28:16 | No. I didn't do any of that. | 
| 00:28:17 | Okay. | 
| 00:28:18 | Where is Hatteras? | 
| 00:28:19 | Can I see the map when you're done, Hannah? | 
| 00:28:23 | What state is it in? | 
| 00:28:25 | You can tell her, Jennifer. | 
| 00:28:27 | I don't know. | 
| 00:28:28 | Oh, you guys, I told you where it was. | 
| 00:28:30 | I- I remember it. | 
| 00:28:31 | I found out, this- | 
| 00:28:33 | If you remember, then you can tell me. | 
| 00:28:36 | I remember her telling us. I just don't remember where. | 
| 00:28:38 | I remember her talking about it. | 
| 00:28:39 | This is a- | 
| 00:28:42 | Cape Hatteras- | 
| 00:28:44 | Yes. In your- on your map in your book it says Cape Hatteras, right. | 
| 00:28:49 | Okay. It's in the book. | 
| 00:28:49 | Oh, that helps. | 
| 00:28:50 | Oh, that hurt. | 
| 00:28:50 | It's not on your plastic map. | 
| 00:28:52 | Oh. It's not? | 
| 00:28:55 | Does that help? | 
| 00:28:56 | No. | 
| 00:28:57 | I don't think it is. It might be. | 
| 00:28:58 | It's North Carolina. | 
| 00:29:01 | Nope. It's not on your plastic map. | 
| 00:29:03 | It's out in the ocean. | 
| 00:29:05 | Well, no. The name is out in the ocean. The little dot //is actually on land. | 
| 00:29:07 | //There's no dot. | 
| 00:29:08 | There's no dot. | 
| 00:29:09 | It's just out in the middle of the ocean. | 
| 00:29:16 | You're right. There is no dot. Hmm. I'm looking in the wrong place anyways. //I'm looking in- | 
| 00:29:21 | //(Where's) New York in New York? It's not on this map. It must be on that- | 
| 00:29:23 | It's on the very corner, like, //if you (go) that way, let's say go to B, it's on the very bottom. | 
| 00:29:25 | //New York is on here. It's just very hard to find. | 
| 00:29:27 | All right. On this one? | 
| 00:29:28 | Mm-hm. Here's the state. | 
| 00:29:30 | Right. //Oh. There it is. | 
| 00:29:31 | Here's the city right there. Yeah. | 
| 00:29:32 | I'm stupid. | 
| 00:29:34 | You're not stupid. It's just buried on an island. | 
| 00:29:38 | You know, partly would be like- | 
| 00:29:39 | "Partly" is 50. Partly is 50. 50. | 
| 00:29:42 | Partly is 50. Partly is 50, Mitch. | 
| 00:29:45 | Okay. | 
| 00:29:46 | "Mostly" is 75 (inaudible) very cloudy. | 
| 00:29:48 | You haven't finished the Detroit station weather model yet. | 
| 00:29:52 | Shouldn't you finish that? Before you start one? | 
| 00:29:54 | I mean, that's what I would do. I guess you can do it any way you want, but- I guess everybody else is doing it that way, too. | 
| 00:30:04 | Remember to keep your handwriting very small and really nice and neat, those of you that struggle with neat. Really nice and neat. | 
| 00:30:15 | That good? | 
| 00:30:17 | SN :00] | 
| 00:30:18 | Yes. | 
| 00:30:19 | Miss A, there's a river through it, but there is no little dot for it. | 
| 00:30:26 | How about on the plastic map? That's why I gave you that plastic map, too, because- | 
| 00:30:30 | Plastic map. | 
| 00:30:32 | some of these cities- some of these cities are not as maj- well, Des Moines is a major city, but some aren't. | 
| 00:30:40 | Oh. It's right in the middle of it. | 
| 00:30:43 | And they're just on weather maps because they have a weather station there. | 
| 00:30:52 | Do we have to label like temperature, pressure? | 
| 00:30:55 | What did you have to do on the weather station model? | 
| 00:30:57 | I don't know. I- | 
| 00:30:59 | Oh. You mean tell me what it is? No. I know what it is. | 
| 00:31:01 | All right. | 
| 00:31:02 | Yeah. No. You just write it down. | 
| 00:31:05 | Okay, Jeff. Circle, and you put New York right there. Okay. And keep this- that right there. | 
| 00:31:15 | Can we just put like NC- I mean NY for like New York? | 
| 00:31:20 | Yeah. Make sure I'm not- make sure you don't get too much clutter around it so that you can't tell that that's what it is. | 
| 00:31:25 | Okay. | 
| 00:31:26 | Okay? So make it clear enough that I'll be able to see it, because NY could easily get lost in there. | 
| 00:31:31 | Okay. | 
| 00:31:32 | Okay? | 
| 00:31:35 | What do we put for "steady?" | 
| 00:31:37 | S. | 
| 00:31:38 | S. | 
| 00:31:39 | Or an arrow- here's your circle, | 
| 00:31:40 | Yeah. | 
| 00:31:41 | An arrow just shooting off. | 
| 00:31:42 | Okay. | 
| 00:32:01 | Here you are, Mitch. | 
| 00:32:02 | You can use the eraser. | 
| 00:32:04 | Use yours. My pencil doesn't show up. | 
| 00:32:07 | I'll go sharpen it. | 
| 00:32:09 | No. We're supposed to pencil that. | 
| 00:32:14 | You guys seem to be having a lot less trouble than second hour did, or maybe I just explained it better this time. I don't know. | 
| 00:32:23 | Miss A? | 
| 00:32:24 | Mm-hm. | 
| 00:32:25 | It's hard for me to write //this small. | 
| 00:32:26 | //Now what are we supposed to do? | 
| 00:32:27 | I know. | 
| 00:32:28 | It's hard for me to even write. | 
| 00:32:29 | I told you it would be a challenge for some of you. Yes. You have very large handwriting. | 
| 00:32:33 | I got very horrible handwriting. | 
| 00:32:34 | (inaudible) | 
| 00:32:35 | Oh, no. That looks good, though. That looks- that's pretty good for you. Yeah. | 
| 00:32:41 | 'Cause I know you would want to fill the map up with- like Los Angeles would cover from L.A. all the way to Florida. | 
| 00:32:46 | I know. It probably would. | 
| 00:32:47 | Mm-hm. Oh. Kansas City is Kansas City, Missouri. Did I say that? | 
| 00:32:53 | Yeah. | 
| 00:32:54 | Okay. Missouri. | 
| 00:32:56 | Okay. I've seen (it in there). | 
| 00:32:58 | (inaudible) | 
| 00:33:00 | Hmm? Which one? | 
| 00:33:03 | Like Kansas City. I didn't know if it- it's right there, isn't it? | 
| 00:33:07 | Yep. It's right on the edge. And then there's another one in Kansas, too, but it's not as big of a city. This is a big city here. | 
| 00:33:14 | You can't even see it. | 
| 00:33:15 | I know. They don't have it on that map. Do they have it on the plastic one? | 
| 00:33:19 | Yeah. | 
| 00:33:23 | Missouri. Yep. And Missouri, yep. And Kansas. | 
| 00:33:30 | Miss A, what is it? North, south- | 
| 00:33:34 | East and west. | 
| 00:33:36 | E- does east go right there? | 
| 00:33:37 | Mm-hm. | 
| 00:33:38 | I (don't) need painkillers. | 
| 00:33:40 | I can't give you medicine. | 
| 00:33:42 | (inaudible) | 
| 00:33:43 | She would have to bring either a written- she would have to bring a note. We need something written that says that we can- | 
| 00:33:51 | Do you want to go call home? | 
| 00:33:54 | Well, I don't want to go home. | 
| 00:33:57 | Well, if you don't want to go home, can you call home and somebody can bring you the medicine? | 
| 00:34:00 | I don't have medicine. | 
| 00:34:03 | Aspirin? Painkiller? | 
| 00:34:05 | Aspirin? Will it, like, let me be able to hear? | 
| 00:34:08 | Tylenol? It won't let you hear, but it'll kill the hurt- it'll kill the pain if you're in pain. | 
| 00:34:13 | I'm in a lot of pain. | 
| 00:34:14 | Well, then you need to take like Tylenol or something. Do you want to call home? | 
| 00:34:19 | Yeah. | 
| 00:34:20 | Okay. Do you want to call from here or do you want to go down to the office? | 
| 00:34:21 | Doesn't matter. | 
| 00:34:22 | Is it like around here? | 
| 00:34:24 | It's over there. It's not long distance. | 
| 00:34:26 | Okay. Yeah. Go ahead and call home. See if somebody can bring you something. We're not allowed to administer any medication. | 
| 00:34:32 | Not even cough drops. Nine. | 
| 00:34:34 | Press nine? | 
| 00:34:35 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:34:37 | Brooke, where did you get "Des Moines"? | 
| 00:34:39 | //Des Moines. | 
| 00:34:40 | //Des Moines. Des Moines. | 
| 00:34:41 | The S is silent. | 
| 00:34:42 | It is in Iowa. | 
| 00:34:44 | In your book or the plastic map? | 
| 00:34:46 | Plastic map. | 
| 00:34:47 | Plastic map only. | 
| 00:34:48 | Oh. | 
| 00:34:50 | How far did you get? | 
| 00:34:51 | I don't know where humidity goes. | 
| 00:34:53 | Where what? | 
| 00:34:54 | Humidity goes. | 
| 00:34:55 | Humidity. Were you listening when I gave directions? | 
| 00:34:57 | (inaudible) | 
| 00:35:00 | You weren't listening? It's showing right now. What did I say about humidity? Did you have to put humidity on it last week? | 
| 00:35:08 | Yeah. | 
| 00:35:09 | Think for a minute. Did you remember putting any on that worksheet we did? | 
| 00:35:16 | Yeah. | 
| 00:35:17 | Isn't it- | 
| 00:35:18 | Humidity? | 
| 00:35:19 | Yeah. It goes right below temperature, doesn't it? | 
| 00:35:21 | Nnn- | 
| 00:35:22 | No? It goes- | 
| 00:35:23 | Does it go below air pressure? | 
| 00:35:25 | Dew point goes below air temperature. Humidity is not on your station model at all. Remember I said that? | 
| 00:35:32 | Yeah. I got dew point underneath. | 
| 00:35:35 | Ah. It's not on there at all. | 
| 00:35:37 | Oh. Just pressure- what? | 
| 00:35:39 | Humidity isn't on there at all. | 
| 00:35:42 | There's no humidity on that station model. Because when you look at dew point, you should be able to tell what the humidity is like, right? | 
| 00:35:50 | For instance, look at- | 
| 00:35:55 | is it New Orleans or Kansas City? Whose got a hundred percent humidity? | 
| 00:36:02 | Denver. | 
| 00:36:03 | Denver? | 
| 00:36:04 | Not only Denver. | 
| 00:36:05 | Okay. There's Denver. Okay. What's temperature in Denver? | 
| 00:36:09 | 30-30. | 
| 00:36:10 | What's dew point? | 
| 00:36:11 | 30. | 
| 00:36:12 | So what does that tell you about the humidity? | 
| 00:36:14 | It's gonna rain. | 
| 00:36:15 | What's the humidity? | 
| 00:36:19 | Hundred. | 
| 00:36:20 | A hundred percent. | 
| 00:36:22 | It's gonna rain or snow. | 
| 00:36:23 | It's- and it is doing that, right? Right. | 
| 00:36:27 | Or it's gonna- I don't know. | 
| 00:36:36 | I will eliminate the ability to talk to your neighbors with- for the worksheet, if we're gonna talk about other things. | 
| 00:36:44 | Is your phone- it says- like I don't know if it //says "message for you." | 
| 00:36:47 | //Message for you. I know. Somebody called me last week and left me a message. I never answered it. | 
| 00:36:54 | Okay? Do you get it now, Stuart? No humidity because you can tell the humidity by the dew point. How are you doing? | 
| 00:37:01 | Okay. | 
| 00:37:02 | Now, these all have to go a certain way. | 
| 00:37:05 | Right. | 
| 00:37:06 | This one I can't tell- oh. Okay. There it is. Your direction for wind. | 
| 00:37:11 | Oh. | 
| 00:37:20 | What are the cloudies again? I forgot. | 
| 00:37:23 | The cloudies? | 
| 00:37:24 | Yes. Now, I know this is clear. | 
| 00:37:27 | Okay. | 
| 00:37:28 | And I say- | 
| 00:37:30 | What one is this one? | 
| 00:37:31 | I say cloudy. | 
| 00:37:34 | Okay. But you've got some sun there. Is it completely cloudy? | 
| 00:37:39 | No. It's just cloudy. Mostly cloudy is completely cloudy, right? The same thing? | 
| 00:37:46 | Mostly cloudy means there must be some- a little bit of sun. | 
| 00:37:50 | All right. | 
| 00:37:51 | So what have you got there? | 
| 00:37:52 | Mostly cloudy. | 
| 00:37:53 | A little bit of sun. Right. You want it all the way cloudy so what are you going to do? | 
| 00:37:56 | Fill it in? | 
| 00:37:57 | Right. | 
| 00:37:59 | All right. So whole circle, that's cloudy. | 
| 00:38:04 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:38:05 | And then half is partly cloudy, right? | 
| 00:38:09 | Yes. | 
| 00:38:14 | And then... cloudy, partly cloudy, and then mostly cloudy is 75%. | 
| 00:38:23 | Yep. | 
| 00:38:29 | That's right. You know what it is. You're the only one that has to look at it. So then what is going to be mostly sunny? | 
| 00:38:41 | This? | 
| 00:38:42 | A quarter. | 
| 00:38:43 | That's clear. That's completely sunny. | 
| 00:38:47 | Completely sunny? | 
| 00:38:48 | If you've got partly cloudy here, what's mostly sunny gonna look like? | 
| 00:38:54 | Mostly clear except a little bit of clouds. Right. Right, right, right. Yep. Yep. There you go. You got it. | 
| 00:39:05 | You sigh like you're in pain, Todd. Is this hurting? | 
| 00:39:14 | Come on, you're not gonna make me stand here the whole time, are you? | 
| 00:39:17 | No. | 
| 00:39:18 | Okay. Then stay on task, okay? | 
| 00:39:19 | Where is Kansas City at? | 
| 00:39:21 | I'm trying to calm her down. | 
| 00:39:23 | I've got energy because he won't let me talk all day. | 
| 00:39:25 | Okay. A very good question, Jennifer. That was the other one I hadn't answered. Listen, please. | 
| 00:39:30 | One of those has a variable direction which means you're not gonna have an arrow shooting into that circle because they're all over the place. | 
| 00:39:38 | If you don't have the arrow shooting into the circle, then you can't put the what? Five miles per hour? | 
| 00:39:42 | Yeah. | 
| 00:39:43 | Okay. So put the line on there anywhere. Because if it's variable, it's changing a whole lot. | 
| 00:39:48 | So just put it anywhere, and then put the five-mile-an-hour line on there. There's another one, though, that says variable- | 
| 00:39:56 | Speed. | 
| 00:39:57 | speed, so put the arrow for the wind direction and then put a V at the end of it, okay? | 
| 00:40:04 | Because you can't say. It's probably anywhere from three to 15 miles an hour. | 
| 00:40:10 | Okay? Get it? | 
| 00:40:12 | Yeah. | 
| 00:40:13 | Okay. Does that help? Okay. | 
| 00:40:24 | Okay, with that line stuff with the- with the- | 
| 00:40:31 | The calm wind chill? | 
| 00:40:32 | Yeah. The wind speed. | 
| 00:40:33 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:40:34 | The lines with the five and the 10. How are we supposed to know- | 
| 00:40:38 | Nine is closer to what? Nine or- I mean 10 or five? | 
| 00:40:42 | It would be ten. | 
| 00:40:43 | Okay. So use the 10. | 
| 00:40:45 | Okay. | 
| 00:40:46 | Okay? And even when you get to the 12- that's halfway between the 10 and the 15- you'll pick. | 
| 00:40:53 | Okay. | 
| 00:40:54 | Okay? You can either pick one 10 mile an hour or the 10 mile and five mile. | 
| 00:40:58 | What about the "calm?" What do you do? Do you just- | 
| 00:41:00 | "Calm" you don't put any //line at all. | 
| 00:41:01 | //Okay. | 
| 00:41:02 | There's no line because there's no direction, there's no nothing, okay? | 
| 00:41:05 | Oh. Uh, and another thing. What if you have like three? Do you put like different- | 
| 00:41:11 | You shouldn't have two on there. It's one or the other. What is that? New York? | 
| 00:41:15 | Yes, New York. | 
| 00:41:16 | Nine-mile-an-hour wind out of the northeast. Which direction is the northeast? | 
| 00:41:22 | Up here. | 
| 00:41:23 | Yeah. So erase that one you've got on the bottom, and then don't forget to put your 10-mile-an-hour line on there. | 
| 00:41:31 | Okay. | 
| 00:41:38 | All right. How many of you guys got done here? We only have like 15 minutes. How many have you got gone? | 
| 00:41:47 | I'm on my first one. | 
| 00:41:48 | On your what? | 
| 00:41:49 | My first one. | 
| 00:41:50 | Hannah! Oh. You found all your cities first? | 
| 00:41:53 | Yeah. | 
| 00:41:56 | I'm like halfway done. | 
| 00:42:00 | You're halfway done? | 
| 00:42:01 | Yep. | 
| 00:42:02 | What would- mostly cloudy is that, right? | 
| 00:42:04 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:42:05 | And partly- partly cloudy is half? | 
| 00:42:08 | Uh-huh. | 
| 00:42:10 | And then "mostly" is just like 75%? | 
| 00:42:12 | //Uh-huh. | 
| 00:42:13 | //What would the 25% be? | 
| 00:42:14 | What do you think? What is it mostly of if only a quarter of it is dark? | 
| 00:42:18 | Mostly clear. | 
| 00:42:19 | Mostly clear or mostly sunny. | 
| 00:42:21 | It goes like that. | 
| 00:42:22 | You don't have any on there. | 
| 00:42:23 | Oh. | 
| 00:42:24 | Unfortunately it was a cloudy day all the way around the country. | 
| 00:42:28 | Like light green air is light rain? | 
| 00:42:31 | Yeah. | 
| 00:42:32 | Okay. | 
| 00:42:33 | Yeah. If you use the- when you use the colored pencils, if they're dull, just use the hand sharpeners please. Don't use the power sharpeners, | 
| 00:42:42 | because they chew it up, eat them away. | 
| 00:42:44 | That's just (inaudible). | 
| 00:42:46 | Yeah. | 
| 00:42:48 | Yeah they drew their hand today, in art. They didn't- | 
| 00:42:54 | We had to draw it upside down. | 
| 00:42:55 | You had to do your hand. Remember you had to do your hand? | 
| 00:42:59 | Yeah, but we had to draw upside down. | 
| 00:43:00 | They haven't got there yet. | 
| 00:43:03 | Can I go back there? | 
| 00:43:04 | Don't push too hard. | 
| 00:43:05 | Oh, man, it hurts. | 
| 00:43:06 | What are you in now? | 
| 00:43:08 | I'm in... a reading thing. | 
| 00:43:12 | Oh, (inaudible). No, you can't come back to art. Sorry. | 
| 00:43:23 | Creepy. | 
| 00:43:24 | It's creepy. | 
| 00:43:24 | What's creepy? | 
| 00:43:26 | My cousin- | 
| 00:43:29 | What? | 
| 00:43:30 | Her cousin has a crush on him. | 
| 00:43:31 | No. She used to. | 
| 00:43:33 | Whose cousin? | 
| 00:43:34 | My cousin used to. | 
| 00:43:35 | Your cousin has a- had a //crush on you? | 
| 00:43:36 | //She used to. Yeah, that's why she creeps me out. | 
| 00:43:40 | Oh. Not Lydia, your cousin? | 
| 00:43:42 | Yes. | 
| 00:43:43 | Oh. | 
| 00:43:44 | I'm afraid of her. | 
| 00:43:45 | Oh. | 
| 00:43:46 | She's strong. | 
| 00:43:47 | She really scares me. | 
| 00:43:48 | I don't like my cousin; I like my cousin's friends. | 
| 00:43:53 | My cousin scares me. I don't like him. I like my cousin's friends. | 
| 00:43:57 | I don't know. | 
| 00:43:59 | Make sure you're putting those in the right place. | 
| 00:44:01 | I am. | 
| 00:44:01 | Okay. Because it looks like Los Angeles is on top of your circle. Your circle needs to be to the left of that city name. | 
| 00:44:15 | Five miles an hour variable directions. //Does that need to be in any direction? | 
| 00:44:16 | //What one are we on, Los Angeles? | 
| 00:44:18 | Yes. And that's the one where I told you to just put the arrow anywhere. | 
| 00:44:25 | I can't find it, Mitch. | 
| 00:44:27 | How do you do a variable wind? | 
| 00:44:32 | Okay. My parents were in Las Vegas, you know, September 11. | 
| 00:44:34 | It's there. | 
| 00:44:35 | They were? | 
| 00:44:36 | Yeah. | 
| 00:44:36 | Ooh. | 
| 00:44:37 | Yeah. You see, they made a really wise decision. You see, originally my dad didn't want to. | 
| 00:44:42 | This is B. | 
| 00:44:45 | It's what she said. | 
| 00:44:49 | And then you put a V on it. | 
| 00:44:54 | That's for the five miles per hour, I think. | 
| 00:44:57 | They did drive? I wouldn't have gotten on an airplane. | 
| 00:44:59 | They had to drive- they couldn't get- like- | 
| 00:45:01 | Oh. //Yeah. | 
| 00:45:02 | //It was either drive or spend 200 dollars a night //to stay at the hotel. | 
| 00:45:04 | //I'm sorry, Jeff. | 
| 00:45:06 | Were they even flying planes at that point? | 
| 00:45:07 | Yeah. | 
| 00:45:08 | When they were coming //back they were? | 
| 00:45:08 | //Oh. No. No, they weren't. | 
| 00:45:10 | We weren't having any planes in the air at that point. Wow. | 
| 00:45:13 | So they had to drive back and- | 
| 00:45:15 | It would be a nice drive, unless you're in a hurry. | 
| 00:45:17 | They- they tried to do that. See, they put- | 
| 00:45:21 | What's today? The 28th? | 
| 00:45:22 | But, I mean, they didn't have that thing- I mean they weren't back- they //initially were supposed to be gone one week. | 
| 00:45:27 | But they weren't back home (inaudible). | 
| 00:45:29 | Oh. Yeah. | 
| 00:45:31 | (inaudible) if they didn't have that car. | 
| 00:45:32 | Yeah. | 
| 00:45:33 | Because there was so many people //who were just diving to get in a car. | 
| 00:45:33 | //Your name's right there. | 
| 00:45:35 | Oh, I'm sure. Yeah. Supply and demand. | 
| 00:45:38 | They just, like- | 
| 00:45:40 | I drew variable direction. Like, what do you put for variable direction? | 
| 00:45:43 | Variable direction? I think I answered that a few minutes ago. | 
| 00:45:46 | I thought you answered variable speed. | 
| 00:45:47 | What did I say about variable direction, Wes? | 
| 00:45:50 | Pardon? | 
| 00:45:51 | What did I say when the direction is variable? | 
| 00:45:52 | It can go any- you can just point the arrow in whatever way you want it to. | 
| 00:45:56 | Just put a line on there somewhere to attach your five miles per hour. | 
| 00:46:04 | There you go. There you go. | 
| 00:46:11 | Do we have to use different colors? | 
| 00:46:13 | No. Uh-uh. No. Not on the station model. The whole thing can be the same color. When you shade, if you want to use color, you can use color. | 
| 00:46:21 | Okay. It's just like shading when you did the station model worksheet. | 
| 00:46:25 | How are you doing over here? | 
| 00:46:27 | Good. | 
| 00:46:27 | You get it? | 
| 00:46:28 | Yeah. | 
| 00:46:28 | Good. | 
| 00:46:31 | How many you got done, Mitch? | 
| 00:46:31 | This thing is too big, but- | 
| 00:46:33 | How many station models? | 
| 00:46:34 | One, two, three, //four, five, six, seven. | 
| 00:46:36 | //Seven. | 
| 00:46:37 | Eight. | 
| 00:46:39 | Eight? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Okay. | 
| 00:46:44 | Yes? Who's calling me? What? | 
| 00:46:46 | Since Cape Hatteras is out in the ocean, where are we supposed to put it? | 
| 00:46:49 | It isn't in the ocean. | 
| 00:46:50 | There's no dot. | 
| 00:46:51 | It is right- it's a cape so I'm assuming it's like right here. We'll just make it right there. There's the city. Now go with it. | 
| 00:47:02 | It's not in the ocean. | 
| 00:47:04 | That's how they showed it on the map. | 
| 00:47:06 | Actually, I should show you the picture of the lighthouse that's there. | 
| 00:47:10 | I'll pull that stuff out for tomorrow because it's kind of interesting. | 
| 00:47:24 | Where is Cape Hatteras? | 
| 00:47:26 | It's out in the ocean. | 
| 00:47:30 | SN :00] | 
| 00:47:31 | SN :00] | 
| 00:47:32 | It's the little dot. It's right there. | 
| 00:47:34 | It's not in your book map. Oh. Yes, it is in your book map. It's not on the plastic map. It's right here. | 
| 00:47:39 | I know. | 
| 00:47:40 | It's- | 
| 00:47:40 | I know, but it's- | 
| 00:47:41 | You know? Why are you asking //me? | 
| 00:47:42 | //Well, it's like "where do I put it?" | 
| 00:47:44 | Okay. | 
| 00:47:44 | I know because I had to go there. | 
| 00:47:45 | It- it should be like right here somewhere. Anywhere that it looks like it might- right in that little cove area there. | 
| 00:47:54 | There it is. | 
| 00:47:55 | There- okay. I'll- to put it to you this way, there's a lighthouse on Cape Hatteras so it can't be back in that cove area, right? | 
| 00:48:03 | It's got to be the most sticking out point of North Carolina. How's that? | 
| 00:48:09 | That's good. | 
| 00:48:09 | Okay. But they had to move the lighthouse because the most sticking out point of North Carolina got washed away, and they thought //that they- | 
| 00:48:20 | SN :00] | 
| 00:48:22 | So wait, a continent got washed out to sea? | 
| 00:48:25 | Okay, Dorothy. You got me there. | 
| 00:48:27 | I'm confused. | 
| 00:48:28 | I can't- no. They actually rolled it back. It's very interesting. | 
| 00:48:31 | //What? | 
| 00:48:31 | //I'll find the stuff. You keep working, I'll find the picture. | 
| 00:48:34 | That confuses me. | 
| 00:48:34 | You just keep working. Just- | 
| 00:48:35 | It's right here. That little part- | 
| 00:48:37 | It's that little part sticking out right there. | 
| 00:48:41 | Yeah, everything filled in. You're gonna have to wait for your group mates to figure out their stuff so //that you can move on to it, but- | 
| 00:48:46 | //So Rhode Island is floating up the sea? | 
| 00:48:49 | No. Rhode Island //is not an island- | 
| 00:48:50 | //Look at- look at where your cloudiness is; look at where your precipitation is and you can go ahead and shade that, | 
| 00:48:58 | and then they're all gonna want to look at yours when they get done so they can copy it. | 
| 00:49:02 | Rhode Island is not an island. | 
| 00:49:04 | Rhode Island is not an island, nope. They probably thought it was when they named it. | 
| 00:49:19 | Where is it anyways? | 
| 00:49:21 | Where is Rhode Island? | 
| 00:49:23 | There is Iowa. | 
| 00:49:29 | Rhode Island is- | 
| 00:49:35 | (If you see) Massachusetts (you see towards) Rhode Island- | 
| 00:49:37 | I'm really thinking we need an American geography class, you guys. | 
| 00:49:41 | Oh, yeah. | 
| 00:49:42 | Yeah. | 
| 00:49:46 | Stop. | 
| 00:49:47 | Oh, yeah. I see it now. | 
| 00:49:48 | When did you say it's Rhode Island? | 
| 00:49:50 | Let's (inaudible) Massachusetts. | 
| 00:49:52 | Isn't that the tiniest state? | 
| 00:50:03 | SN :00] | 
| 00:50:16 | Uh, is there a problem? Do I need to be babysitting? | 
| 00:50:20 | No. | 
| 00:50:20 | Yeah. You need to baby-sit them. | 
| 00:50:24 | Baby-sit them. | 
| 00:50:22 | No, I don't think that's in my job description. | 
| 00:50:26 | Baby-sit (inaudible). | 
| 00:50:29 | Not when the kid being babysitted is 14 years old. | 
| 00:50:36 | That means it's not me because I'm not 14 years old. | 
| 00:50:39 | Neither am I. | 
| 00:50:41 | You baby-sit at 14? | 
| 00:50:46 | There it is. | 
| 00:50:47 | Miss Anderson? | 
| 00:50:49 | Uh-huh? | 
| 00:50:51 | Is the higher the humidity where a high pressure is or low pressure? | 
| 00:50:54 | Hmm. Good question. Where would the most humidity be? | 
| 00:50:59 | Think about- look at- well, think about a weather map. | 
| 00:51:07 | Where is the precipitation around the fronts? | 
| 00:51:15 | Precipitation is behind the front or in front of the front? | 
| 00:51:17 | It's in front of it. | 
| 00:51:19 | In front of the front. Okay. So if you're looking at precipitation, you're looking at humidity, too. | 
| 00:51:25 | So what is higher humidity gonna tell you? | 
| 00:51:31 | Precipitation. | 
| 00:51:34 | It's gonna tell you there's precipitation so where would it be located in relationship to the front? | 
| 00:51:38 | By the precipitation. | 
| 00:51:40 | What will be by the precipitation? | 
| 00:51:42 | The front. | 
| 00:51:44 | The front. What front? | 
| 00:51:47 | Cold front. | 
| 00:51:49 | Very good. | 
| 00:51:51 | Where is Des Moines? | 
| 00:51:52 | It's not Des Moines. It is Des Moines. | 
| 00:51:56 | Where is it? | 
| 00:51:56 | It's in Iowa. | 
| 00:52:01 | I read that book in art. | 
| 00:52:02 | Hmm? | 
| 00:52:03 | I was looking through that book in art. | 
| 00:52:04 | Were you? | 
| 00:52:05 | One of the last days. | 
| 00:52:06 | Is the bell going to ring late today? | 
| 00:52:08 | You know what? I'm not sure. Jennifer, go ask Mrs. O'Brian if she is going to let everybody out for lunch by the bell or at nine minutes after. | 
| 00:52:20 | Okay. | 
| 00:52:21 | Okay? Okay. So far Jennifer is the only one that got all of the cities plotted. | 
| 00:52:27 | I'm almost done. | 
| 00:52:27 | I'm almost done. | 
| 00:52:28 | Two more. | 
| 00:52:29 | Two more? You might finish if you don't talk. | 
| 00:52:33 | This is a- | 
| 00:52:34 | I haven't been talking all day. | 
| 00:52:36 | Yes you have. | 
| 00:52:36 | I get a lot of //energy when I- | 
| 00:52:38 | //(inaudible) I hate it. | 
| 00:52:39 | //Sit on your butt. | 
| 00:52:40 | I don't like this. I get a lot of energy when I don't talk. | 
| 00:52:43 | You what? | 
| 00:52:43 | I don't like this. I get a lot of energy when I don't talk. | 
| 00:52:45 | Tomorrow is gonna be even worse because you won't be allowed to talk in here either. | 
| 00:52:49 | I'll be running around the whole- the whole lunch hour. | 
| 00:52:52 | Mark, sit. Thank you. Work. | 
| 00:52:55 | We need the map. | 
| 00:53:01 | I got all the cities. | 
| 00:53:02 | You got all the cities done? Okay. I told Jennifer to go ahead and- ooh, Cynthia, you went ahead of your group. | 
| 00:53:07 | You're supposed to be making those decisions with your group together. | 
| 00:53:10 | Yeah but she- she wouldn't- | 
| 00:53:11 | Okay. When you get to the point when you are ready to do precipitation and the fronts, decide as a group, | 
| 00:53:19 | so that you can explain why you think the front needs to go somewhere and then someone else can either debate with you or agree with you. | 
| 00:53:27 | And don't agree with the person just because they get better grades in science. | 
| 00:53:33 | Because a lot of times when it comes to this kind of stuff they won't get it. It happens an awful lot. | 
| 00:53:39 | They know the bookwork, they understand some of the concepts, but when it comes to actually applying them, | 
| 00:53:45 | sometimes those people that really get good grades have a real hard time with this kind of stuff. Mitch? | 
| 00:53:50 | Is this homework? | 
| 00:53:51 | No. It is not homework. | 
| 00:53:53 | Oh, good. | 
| 00:53:54 | I'm gonna give you one more minute to work and then I'm gonna explain the rest to you. What did she say? | 
| 00:53:59 | Nine after. | 
| 00:53:59 | Nine after? I figured she was gonna be going to lunch. | 
| 00:54:02 | So can we get out at the bell? | 
| 00:54:04 | No. You'll get out before the bell. If you want to get out at the bell, it probably won't ring until a quarter after or so. | 
| 00:54:11 | Oh. The bells are behind? | 
| 00:54:12 | The bells are behind. Because it would actually be ringing during the middle of- if we were following that clock during the middle of fourth hour. | 
| 00:54:20 | It's that middle bell. | 
| 00:54:23 | I don't like the fourth- the bell for fourth hour because there's no minute bell which is why I'm always late. | 
| 00:54:28 | You won't be today. | 
| 00:54:28 | I know. | 
| 00:54:29 | Because there will be teachers in the hallway making sure you make it, because you won't be talking to each other in the hallway. | 
| 00:54:34 | It's actually working out quite nicely. | 
| 00:54:36 | I feel like I'm in a state prison. I mean, //don't they- | 
| 00:54:38 | //That's how we want it to feel. | 
| 00:54:39 | About the only difference is that- is that the teachers aren't carrying 12 gauges. | 
| 00:54:43 | No, we won't do that, but we are definitely- it is definitely a //crackdown situation. | 
| 00:54:49 | //You just keep hurting yourself. | 
| 00:54:50 | Yes, I do, and it's not fair. | 
| 00:54:52 | Work. | 
| 00:54:53 | I keep //(inaudible)- | 
| 00:54:54 | //Work. | 
| 00:54:56 | I have a question. | 
| 00:54:58 | Hm? | 
| 00:54:59 | How did this ever start anyways? | 
| 00:55:00 | Huh? | 
| 00:55:00 | How did that start anyways? | 
| 00:55:00 | Last Friday's behavior. | 
| 00:55:03 | (Mine)? | 
| 00:55:04 | No. | 
| 00:55:07 | Houston's in Texas. | 
| 00:55:08 | Who's done? | 
| 00:55:10 | Oh, there's that lunch bell. Stop. Freeze. You are responsible to bring the map and the instructions back to this room- | 
| 00:55:19 | Can you send Dorothy to the office? | 
| 00:55:21 | She is on her way. | 
| 00:55:21 | Thanks. | 
| 00:55:22 | Tomorrow if you don't have it, am I going to give you another one? | 
| 00:55:25 | No. | 
| 00:55:26 | No. Are you going to get a grade? | 
| 00:55:28 | No. | 
| 00:55:28 | No. Just so long as we understand that. Have a nice lunch. | 
| 00:55:33 | You, too, Mrs. Anderson. | 
| 00:55:34 | Make sure everything else is on the middle of the table. Don't- thank you, Jeff. | 
| 00:55:38 | Do you want your pencil back? | 
| 00:55:39 | Yes, I want my pencil back. Put that on and leave it on. It's not working, Victoria. | 
| 00:55:48 | See you tomorrow, Mrs. Anderson. | 
| 00:55:48 | Oh, thank you, Jeff. I'll see you tomorrow, too. Have a good afternoon. |
