Section 3H: Now that you know a bit about how a barometer works, you will design your own! Here's what you need to do:

On a piece of loose leaf, do the following:
1) Briefly explain how a barometer works, in your own words (you may draw pictures, if you'd like)
2) List materials you would use from around the house to create your own barometer
3) Draw a sketch of your barometer being sure to label all of the materials
4) Describe the aspects of your set up that your think will work well and those that could be improved. Make sure to include explanations of these inferences!
5) For extra credit - build it! You can take a picture of it OR bring it in!
