This unit focuses on understanding the movement of air and the forces that drive weather patterns. Students will explore how global winds are influenced by solar energy, leading to concepts like convection currents and the Coriolis effect. The unit includes hands-on mapping activities to identify high and low pressure zones and illustrate primary wind directions, fostering a comprehensive grasp of atmospheric dynamics. Ultimately, learners will connect these principles to real-world weather phenomena, highlighting the sun's role as the main driver of atmospheric motion.
