Climate Mapping and Color Coding

In this video tutorial, students are guided through a project to analyze climate patterns across different parts of the world. The task involves using a climate decoder to color-code various regions based on their climate characteristics, such as temperature variations in winter and summer. Students will learn to determine climate colors by mixing primary colors and apply these to a world map. The activity encourages collaboration as each student works on different sections of the map, which will be combined to study global climate patterns.

What determines the section each student works on in the climate task?

• Their favorite color
