At the beginning of science courses, usually, the scientific method is taught. My high school students have to demonstrate their knowledge of the scientific processes and especially show an understanding of data collection, variables, and conclusions. This document contains the rubric I use to grade their assignment as well as the student instructions that I give. This is in a Google doc so that you can edit the instructions or manipulate the rubric.

This Study Jam video does a great job demonstrating the differences between weather and climate.  It discusses how temperature and air pressure can change due to a change in elevation.

This video can also be used during reading units dealing with compare and contrast.
