This Lesson Plan provides some generic maps, graphs, and data tables for use with the Data Literacy Cube. Because this is a differentiated resource, it is appropriate for multiple grade bands.
Students identify patterns and describe the relationship between chlorophyll concentration and incoming shortwave radiation.
Students examine the two time series images to determine the differences between seasonal ice melt over water versus land.
The Urban Heat Island Implementation Sequence provides a series of lessons and activities for students to learn about the processes that create differences in surface temperatures, as well as how human activities have led to the creation of urban heat islands.
