Air Pressure and Wind - by Study Jams
Changes in air pressure, caused by air's height above sea level, temperature, and amount of water vapor, causes wind. The Earth's rotation also helps. It causes the Coriolis Effect, which makes the wind blow on a curved path. Learn more about the difference between air pressure and wind with this cartoon animation from StudyJams. A short, self-checking quiz is also included with this link.
PediNeuroLogic Exam: 2 1/2 Years Old: Behavior/Mental Status - Names Pictures
Later on in the exam she cooperates enough to demonstrate that she is able to name all five pictures that are shown to her, which is the next developmental level above pointing to them.

Pointing to 4 pictures should be accomplished by 2.5 years, naming by 3 years and identification by action by 4 years. A neuroscience tutorial focusing on those aspects of the pediatric neurological e
