Weather
This Nuffield Working with Science unit was designed to help students to appreciate why the study of weather is important. The topic was planned to cover factors that influence the weather and the reasons why weather forecasters need to collect a large amount of information from a variety of sources.
Guidance for teachers and technicians appears in Teachers’ Notes E.
This unit was not included in the second, CPVE edition of the project.
