Weather
•Weather is what the weatherman on TV predicts each day.
•Weather is not the same everywhere – it changes day to day and place to place.

Climate
•Climate is the average weather in a region over a long period of time.
•While the weather can change in just a few hours, climate takes hundreds, thousands, even millions of years to change.

Climate and Energy
• The energy from the sun heats Earth• Our atmosphere acts like a blanket, both absorbing
(trapping) and reflecting this heat energy • It is a delicate balance to maintain the temperature of
Earth• Click on the icon on the right.• Complete the research questions in your booklet
