copies of the user guides. I also provided participants with a screencast with a set of pause points for them to follow along with while they tried to recreate one of the symmetries I provided. Finally, I prepped 20 spheres so that the poles and equators were measured, tacked and outlined with pearl cotton for the participants to create a simple set of eight symmetrical guidelines for their individual spheres. I circulated the room and demonstrated how to recreate portions of a spherical model…

evaporated from the ocean which fuels the hurricane. b. The heat is released in a tropical thunderstorm is carried away by the wind and it takes the top of the storm. This causes the heat to build up forming a low pressure. c. Hurricanes develop near the equator, moving rapidly towards land; the storm system can produce dangerous destructive winds, scaturient rain, and flooding leaving communities completely dismantled. II. Life Cycle of Hurricanes a. Tropical Depression is formed when there…
