    • We are FOCUSING on … positive attitudes by… identifying the attitudes required to accept challenges, learn new skills and strategies, and extend my abilities in a variety of outdoor activities.

    Learning Intentions
    To learn to read a weather map and forecast the weather
    To understand the causes of, and influences on, the weather (sun, hills, water, temperature, etc)
    To investigate an aspect of the weather using scientific methods.

    Success Criteria
    Can forecast weather from primary (observation) & secondary (maps) sources
    Understands the risks & impact that weather can have an outdoor experiences
    Can explain concepts that impact our weather in NZ (eg El Nino/La Nina)

    We'll discuss:
    Types of weather system (cyclone, hurricane, warm & cold fronts, high & low pressure systems)
    Impact on weather of sun, moon, topography, localised features eg lakes, city pollution
    Types of cloud (cumulus, nimbus, cirrus, stratus)
    Wind (direction, strength, causes, effects); precipitation (snow, rain, hail, fog)  

    Assessment
    Your work on weather will contribute towards Assessment 2 and will be self and teacher / instructor assessed.
    Self-assessment: part of the evidence for your grade will come from your reflections in your learning journal.
    Teacher / Instructor assessment: other evidence will come from observations and conversations during the sessions regarding your contribution, team work and skills development

    In your Learning Journal, you should reflect on how you develop the skills and knowledge outlined in the Unit Standards. Your aim is to show that you know:
    1. where you're at in your learning (what skills & knowledge do you have now)
    2. where you're going (what skills & knowledge you are working towards)
    3. how you'll get there (what next steps you'll take to learn these skills & knowledge) 

    Weather investigation
    In particular, you will take it in turns to predict the weather for the class and will perform a scientific experiment to explore an aspect of weather. These might be proving that air moves clockwise round a low pressure system, warm air holds more moisture than cold air, air temperature causes clouds to rain, air pressure changes as a cold or warm front passes, 'old wives tales' accurately predict weather patterns (eg cows lie down before rain, pine cones predict rain, red sky at night shepherds' delight, etc)

    Here we'll look at maps:

    • scale (eg 1:50,000) and distances (horizontal map distance & slope walking distance) 
    • gridlines (true / magnetic / true north)
    • longitude and latitude
    • features (roads, buildings, cliffs, streams)

    And, we'll look at compasses:

    • Adjusting for the difference between magnetic and grid north
    • Bearings from map and from land
    •

    As a rough guide to our learning, we'll use the NCEA unit standards below. The content in these standards will help you when you complete your LEARNING JOURNAL, which will form part of your assessment.

    NCEA Unit Std 20159 L2 (2 credits) Gather and apply weather information to an outdoor recreation activity
    https://www.nzqa.govt.nz/ncea/assessment/view-detailed.do?standardNumber=20159


    One to aim for in future:
    NCEA Unit Std 20160 L3 (2 credits) Demonstrate knowledge of weather processes and their effects in NZ
    https://www.nzqa.govt.nz/ncea/assessment/view-detailed.do?standardNumber=20160

    Resources
    Topics covered include:
    • Global air & water movements (High & low pressure systems - converge, diverge, rotate in lower atmosphere). Effect of unequal heating of land - global atmospheric circulation.
    • Movement of water in 'water cycle'
    • Seasonal impacts, equinox & solstice - passage & position of Earth around Sun
    • Weather features resulting from air/water movement - Katabatic / Anabatic winds
    • Vertical air movement - changes in temperature & pressure
    • Clouds and fog - humidity, temperature, wind, lifting processes. Types of low, medium and high level clouds.
    • Influences on NZ’s weather - global origins of air masses, geographic (lake, mountains, valleys, global location, orientation of land forms.
    • Seasonal variations on NZ weather patterns - wind direction / speed, precipitation, sunshine hours, temperature.




    Here's a great documentary about NZ's weather and what influences it, by Weatherman Jim Hickey


    For anyone who's interested, here's an interesting blog post about many weather features that we've discussed in class:

    Revision of weather and navigation. 
    Here are some quizzes for you to work on. Remember that you are preparing for a trip in serious terrain and need to practise your skills and knowledge.
    1. Weather https://www.proprofs.com/quiz-school/story.php?title=weather-unit-test-5th-grade-level
    2. Navigation https://www.ttc.org.nz/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Bushcraft/MapAndCompass      scroll down to "map & compass exercise #1" and then #2 and #3. There's a link to download a map that you'll need (link also here http://www.topomap.co.nz/NZTopoMap?v=2&ll=-41.322865,174.720609&z=11)
    (you'll have to download, open, enlarge (by clicking the + icon a few times), and move around the map using the up and down arrows on their keyboard).

    3. If you need another quiz (you won't), use this navigation one: https://scoutingmagazine.org/2014/02/quiz-well-know-use-map-compass/ (American but very useful)

    The next topic will be preparing and packing gear.
