Earth's Atmosphere and Its Seasons helps students investigate and understand the causes of the seasons, Earth-Sun relationships, the composition of the atmosphere, Sun's role as the main source of energy that drives weather and climate, the greenhouse effect, and more. Clear, narrated explanations along with thought-provoking review questions and lab activities, a visual index, clickable glossary, colorful animations, and video clips provide a fun way to learn many important lessons about weather and climate. Version 1.1 adds student quiz scoring that can be used to generate a printed record of the student's responses to the quizzes. You may print the record, save it to file, or email it through your computer's print dialog or document viewer. Version 1.1 appears in a window on the desktop. The window can be moved and resized.

Your students will investigate:

  • Different types of weather and how it impacts them.
  • Differences between weather and climate.
  • The composition of air, and the important roles of water vapour and carbon dioxide.
  • Why we have seasons.
  • Earth’s motions and orientation in relation to the Sun.
