This resource was super beneficial to refer to and utilize while planning a lesson on evaporation in the water cycle for a fifth grade class. When beginning this lesson plan I felt a bit overwhelmed with the lack of knowledge I felt I had surrounding the topic of evaporation. I was ecstatic when stumbling upon this interactive E-Book because it provided an extensive overview on the water cycle and all of its components related to weather and climate. I felt after reading through this E-Book along with taking the quizzes throughout and the assessment at the end that the book provided me with the knowledge I needed to teach this lesson. It also made me realize that I had a lot of prior knowledge that just needed to be activated and that was possible through the detailed explanations this E-Book offered. In addition to the aid this book provided to my own knowledge in terms of the lesson plan, I was able to finalize a phenomena through this resource because it provided various phenomenons that related to the ocean's effect on weather and climate. Following the phenomena I found it helpful that this E-Book included common misconceptions as well and I took this into consideration when planning and teaching my lesson plan so I was sure the students were getting the most out of what they were being taught.

This E-Book was a wonderful resource for elementary teachers who are looking to brush up on some of their earth sciences, or even to gain new background knowledge. I love the organization of the E-Book — it progresses in a way that is very easy to follow along and builds on what the previous chapters have explained. I also think it is easily accessible and effective to use, especially having the table of contents (with live links to move to different chapters and sections so you can pinpoint exactly where to go based on a specific topic) being actively present at the bottom of the page, rather than needed to flip all the way back to the front. This is so effective and a time-saver if you want to go back and reread a specific section, and I wish more online texts utilized this feature. Additionally, the text has a plethora of different graphic organizers, images, and even working simulations that make the learning experience all that more interactive. I was impressed by how thoroughly it covered each topic (but in a digestible way for teachers who may not have learned about some of the concepts in college-level depth), and I especially appreciated including Chapter 7, with pedagogical implications differentiated for grades K-12. I definitely recommend this E-Book who is looking for a reputable resource to research an earth/weather/climate based lesson for their students!

This was a very useful resource for teachers and classrooms. This book was thorough in explaining background knowledge and phenomena that students will need to understand to engage in weather-related curriculum. One thing that I liked about this resource is that it talked about misconceptions that students may have about weather and climate. Knowing these misconceptions can guide teachers and tell them what type of content they should focus on. Overall, this book is effective in informing students and teachers about this subject area.

This SciPack did a great job at reviewing and teaching me a few things I had forgot over the years. This SciPack did take a deeper dive into some of the components I only touched the surface of in middle and high school. I think this is a great tool for teaching, as well as reviewing different standards.

This Scipack did a fantastic job at explaining the different effects the ocean has on the Weather and Climate. I enjoyed having the interactive tools to use throughout the SciPack and being able to further my knowledge on this topic. I feel like I got more knowledge out of this Scipack than I knew actually existed on this topic. This can also be applied to any grade level. Younger students can learn about the water cycle and older students can go in more depth of how the ocean affects climate. I would recommend this to any teacher or anyone that wants to be more knowledgable on this topic!

I think this e-book is a great resource for teachers and students to use for weather and climate instruction! I believe that each section was separated perfectly and gave students good opportunities to apply their knowledge and test their comprehension. There was a lot of information in this e-book, but I did not think it was overwhelming. It is easy for teachers and students to find specific information without getting confused or lost within the text. This e-book could be used in a variety of levels, such is within the elementary classroom or as a resource for a science lesson plan, which is what I personally used it for. I think this would also be a great resource for middle and high school students as well! The final assessment did a great job at measuring the information learned and made sure the reader took the most important information out of it. Overall, I will definitely be using this e-book as a reference again in my future classroom.

This Sci pack did a great job at fully explaining all of the information that it was covering. I truly feel like I know a lot more about the earths weather an dhow the ocean can affect that. This can be used for any type of lesson. You could pull more advanced topics for high school or even smaller topics like the general parts of the water cycle for the younger grades like elementary school. This book also used many visuals to show how things happen and what conditions need to happen for the certain thing to take place and I think that is amazing. I am a visual learner so it helped me personally grasp the ideas on a deeper, more understanding level. I would recommend a teacher to use this for their lessons or even something to read that is curious about the weather when it comes to changes in the ocean.

The E-book was really great at sectioning the different aspects of this phenomena. The way that it was formatted allowed for the E-book to be used as a whole group interactive activity or small group activity. When students are exploring this phenoman, it is easy for students to be assigned exceprts from the text to discover more information on temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind, air pressure, and etc. I really think that sources like these have been the most useful in trying to ensure students virtually have the same science experience. This book also could be used at various age ranges depending on the type of activities you use it for. As a college student, I used it to get more information myself to build lesson plans. However, you could use it at an elementary level for parts of the water cycle or introduction to weather and climate, as well as in grades such as high school, where they could explore why the weather and climate are affected in different circumstances. I would reccomend this E-book to an educator who wants to incorporate mini activities/videos within the text they want their students to interact with.
