Year 8 - Winds that Impact Geneva

The students in Year 8 have been looking at the different aspects that make up our daily weather conditions. They have already investigated temperature, clouds and precipitation and now the focus has been on wind. The students explored how wind occurs, what makes them powerful and how where they come from can have a dramatic impact on us. The class produced individual posters on a specific wind that occurs over the city of Geneva. On the information poster they were asked to explain how the wind occurs, what weather that wind brings to the area and therefore how it impacts us. Examples of student work can be found below:
