Environmental Science Activity

Colorado Climate

In an effort to provide my students with lessons that are more approachable, I try to use local information whenever possible.

This activity is designed as a set of rotating stations where students can get an idea of a wide variety of aspects of Colorado's climate and the ways in which climate classifications are made.

I am currently at a fairly low-achieving, high-poverty school, so I've built in a bit of basic graph interpretation and math practice to help build their skills.

Colorado Climate Classification Stations

Each folder represents one of the stations. The teacher guide gives an overview of the data and goals for the activity.
