Students explore weather terminology and the jobs that are associated with it.  In this weather lesson students write about thunderstorms and make a tornado. 

Fourth graders generate an oral presentation on the weather. In this weather lesson plan, 4th graders watch the weather for a week and record the data on a chart. Students give a weather report at the end of the week.

Students create their own weather report. In this weather lesson, students work in groups to predict the weather for three days and create their own video. They have a director, camera-person, still cameraman, and two weathermen. 

Students record weather for a period of one month. In this weather lesson, students observe weather for one month on a large pictograph. Students record clouds, wind, temperature and any other weather conditions they observe. Students...

First graders explore weather patterns. In this weather lesson plan, 1st graders research the daily weather by creating a graph of the daily weather conditions. Students use the computer to access information regarding the weather...

Students build tools to help track the weather. In this weather lesson, students follow directions to build a rain gauge, barometer and hair hygrometer.

Students study how to forecast the weather. In this weather forecasting lesson students read different meters and understand basic cloud formations in their relationship to weather.

In this earth science worksheet, students check the accuracy of the weather forecasts in their area for a week. Then they complete the chart by recording the forecast for the week's weather and then recording the actual weather for that...

Students create weather journals. For this weather science lesson, students use digital cameras to record the daily weather and write a paragraph in a weather journal.

Students compare and contrast weather conditions. In this weather lesson, students conduct online research to identify the weather conditions for the city they have chosen. Students compare and contrast the similarities and differences...

Students identify characteristics of weather and seasons, describe the current weather, identify the current season, and locate the current temperature at www.weatherchannel.com. They also depict the current forecast using Math Keys...

A reading comprehension passage is illustrative for both language arts and earth science skills. Using context clues, learners find out how to predict the weather using various tools. They then answer five reading questions about what...

Join the tree house detectives in learning about the processes of the water cycle, water conservation, water treatment, and water as a limited resource.

Fourth graders study the basic meteorological instruments (thermometer, barometer, weather vane, anemometer, and rain gauge). They explore how they are used, data that can be collected from them, and why records of the data are kept.

Students compare real-time Earth and Mars measurements for temperature, wind speed, humidity and atmospheric pressure by accessing Internet-data resources from NASA. They access real-time weather data and maps for their school location.

Students document weather patterns associated with the region where they live. They collect weather data about severe thunderstorms, hurricanes, and tornadoes, and create safety preparation charts for each.

Students interview an Elder to determine ways of forecasting the weather.  In this weather lesson, students use the information from an interview to make a weather prediction.

Learners study, record, and predict weather. They work in groups to create a weather word wall, research and make a barometer, and create a video about weather. They use the Internet to research weather.

Students explore and discuss hurricanes, and examine how meteorologists, weather officers, and NASA researchers use measurement and data analysis to predict severe weather. They plot points on coordinate map, classify hurricanes...

Students use weather pattern worksheets to research how weather is predicted. In this weather prediction lesson plan, students predict the weather based on the wind, rain, currents, and other patterns.
