Weather Patterns and Predictions

The video explores weather patterns and how they can be used to make predictions. It introduces an app to help identify patterns using ovals and temperature data. The lesson covers understanding temperature ranges and their importance in predicting weather. The video concludes with an examination of weather patterns in Bintulu, Malaysia, and how these patterns can inform predictions.

What is the main investigation question discussed in the introduction?

• What are the different types of weather phenomena?

• How do meteorologists forecast rain?

• Is there a pattern to the weather that can be used for predictions?

• How to measure temperature accurately?

In the app, what should you do when a red number or question mark appears?

• Drag the oval to the corresponding numbered box

• Ignore it and continue

• Change the color of the oval

• Click on the reset button

What pattern was used to sort the ovals in the app?

• Type of pattern on the ovals

• Number of stripes on the ovals

• Shape of the ovals

• Color of the ovals

Which state would 79 degrees Fahrenheit most likely belong to?

• Florida

• Alaska

• New York

• Hawaii

Why is it difficult to make predictions with only one day of data?

• Because the data is not accurate

• Because the temperature changes too frequently

• Because the data is not in a line plot

• Because patterns require multiple days to identify

What is the temperature range for Isolo National Park?

• 76 to 84 degrees Fahrenheit

• 82 to 92 degrees Fahrenheit

• 35 to 56 degrees Fahrenheit

• 43 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit

What is the key concept about temperature patterns discussed?

• Temperature is the same everywhere

• Temperature does not follow any pattern

• Temperature is unpredictable

• Temperature patterns can be described by their range

What is the temperature range observed in Bintulu, Malaysia?

• 35 to 56 degrees Fahrenheit

• 82 to 92 degrees Fahrenheit

• 43 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit

• 76 to 84 degrees Fahrenheit

How does visualizing temperature predictions help?

• It helps decide what to wear or do

• It makes the data more complex

• It makes the data more colorful

• It changes the temperature

What will the next lessons focus on using the learned patterns?

• Forecasting wind speed
