Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.

2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.

B. The lesson:

1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.

2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.

3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!

C. TIPS / OTHER IDEAS

4. A detailed case study in how to set up a successful QR Scavenger Hunt using this tool can be found here.

Question

Answer

1. state of the atmosphere Weather
2. the usual weather conditions in a particular place or region Climate
3. large body of air Air Mass
4. measure of the weight of the Earth’s atmosphere. Air Pressure
5. boundary between two different air masses. Front
6. when warm and cold fronts collide/combine Occluded Front
7. slow, or no, movement on an air mass Stationary Front
8. Global winds are a system of wind patterns distributing warm air unevenly across Earth. Global Winds
9. The rotation of the Earth causes an interesting phenomena on free moving objects on the Earth. Objects in the Northern Hemisphere are deflected to the right, while objects in the Southern Hemisphere are deflected to the left. Coriolis Effect
10. biggest clouds; looks like cotton balls Cumulus
11. low-lying, layered clouds Stratus

14. a twirling, narrow funnel of wind with speeds of 100 to 300 miles per hour that can damage anything in its path. Tornado
15. a storm system that has a low pressure center and many thunderstorms. Hurricane
16. small, intense weather systems that make strong winds, heavy rain, lightning, and thunder. Thunderstorm
17. amount of water vapor in the air. Humidity
18. lines on weather map that connect points of equal atmospheric pressure. Isobars
19. lines on weather map that connect points of equal temperature. Isotherms
20. the temperature where water vapour condenses into liquid water. Dewpoint
21. the study of weather and weather patterns. Meteorology
22. How polluted the air is. Air Quality
23. Contamination of air by smoke and harmful gases, mainly oxides of carbon, sulfur, and nitrogen. Air Pollution
24. Fog that is made worse by air pollution. Smog
25. a fuel (such as coal, oil, or natural gas) formed in the earth from plant or animal remains Fossil Fuel
26. rain that has been made acidic by certain pollutants in the air. Acid Rain
27. the long-term shift in weather patterns in a specific region or globally. Climate Change
28. a gradual rising of Earth's temperature Global Warming
29. energy that comes from natural sources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, plants, algae and geothermal heat. These energy resources are renewable, meaning they're naturally replenished. Green Energy
30. Any of the atmospheric gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide,water vapor, methane, and nitrous oxide. Greenhouse gases
31. Chemicals that have the potential to destroy the ozone; ex.) hairspray, refrigeration, ect. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
