What Rain?!!!
by Leslie Gudger
Why do different parts of the Phoenix Metropolitan areas have a big difference in rainfall during monsoon days? Discover how the rain shadows of the White Tank Mountains and the McDowell Mountain Range act as barriers to how air masses move and how this affects the total amount of precipitation. Teach and reinforce interpreting published data, reading topographical maps, and using data to create graphs. Students will also simulate rain shadows by doing a hands-on activity outside.
