Understanding Convection

Teacher Plan Overview

Understanding Convection provides an excellent visual model and description of the convection proces for students. In this activity, you will model convection using the digital learning activity, which shows the steps and has labels to match with it. Included in this document are more simplified labels created for each step. Students will complete a worksheet matching steps of convection with the more simplified labels later, and then be assessed by writing a descriptive paragraph describing convection.
