Rain Gauge Design Challenge
In Arizona, rain a major component of the water cycle, is a precious and vital. Students will gain an understanding of the three phase of watrer on the earth: solid, liquid and gas and the four stages of the water cycle. In small groups, students will then participate in a hands on experience rain gauge design challenge.

In this unit, students will use their knowledge of weather and climate patterns to construct, place, and collect data from a rain gauge for one month. The beginning of the school year would be the
Students will use geometric reasoning and the engineering design process to construct solar ovens while learning about renewable energy.
This interactive 4th-grade lesson plan focuses on erosion and weathering, key concepts in understanding Earth's geology. In "Dynamic Earth," students use an interactive simulation to explore how
