As a way to combine language arts and science, try this lesson on writing cloud poetry. Begin by showing a PowerPoint presentation and images of cloud types. Take meteorology masters outdoors to explore the sky using the provided "Cloud...

Students create and analyze a weather-related data table and a thematic map based upon information provided.

Students explore hurricanes.  In this weather data interpretation lesson, students draw conclusions about the impact of Hurricane Floyd as it related to weather conditions. Students read and interpret a tide data table, a barometric...

This activity requires the pupils to follow a teacher activity, so more-than-the-usual preparation for a practical is needed. Looking at a globe as it rotates and receives "sunlight" from a flashlight, pupils are able to observe the...

Learners create their own daily log books for recording and keeping track of the weather.

Second graders measure, record, graph, and report changes in local weather using Navajo, Ute, and Spanish words for weather conditions. They record the weather results on a graph, and create drawings of weather conditions.

Second graders record and summarize daily weather observations for a week in the form of a bar graph. They cut and glue a weather symbol for each day, record it on the graph, and answer discussion questions.

Learners record weather data and create a five day forecast. Students investigate the roles of meteorologists and identify symbols used on a weather map. After gathering weather data for a week, learners will create a five day forecast...

Second graders make daily weather observations, record them with appropriate stickers on a chart, and then summarize them at the end of the week in the form of a bar graph.

Students research weather patterns. For this weather lesson, students read Chester Noongwook's Rules of Weather Observation and keep a weather journal for one month. Students observe the weather patterns throughout the month.

Fifth graders use Internet sites to complete a study of weather and atmosphere. They compare weather data from cities around the world. They use thermometers, the Beaufort wind scale, and simple weather symbols to measure weather around...

Students examine the weather. They discover the conflict between man and nature caused by the changes in weather and the impact it has upon their lives. Students explore weather folklore. They write a report on the weather. ...

Students participate in a variety of mini-lessons including experiments, literature readings, physical education components, music, data gathering and recording and more to expose them to several themes of weather; i.e. water cycle,...

Second graders examine how weather affects animals and people. They discuss Navajo and Ute stories told during different seasons of the year, and create a drawing of people or animal behavior and the connection to the weather.

First graders go on a water walk, collect weather data, and measure rainfall for a month. They examine the water cycle in this series of lessons.

Students design a chart to use to record the weather for five days. They then build an anemometer to record wind speed and discover why they are used for this purpose.

First graders explore weather. They distinguish between different types of weather and choose their favorite type of weather. Students draw a picture of their favorite type of weather. They draw a picture of what they could do in their...

Learners observe, record, and report weather conditions to learn how air mass densities determine the weather we experience daily. They demonstrate how clouds form, name clouds and predict the weather.

Students conduct an experiment. In this wind measurement lesson plan, students learn about instruments that measure the wind and then make a weather vane. Students record wind speed over a few days.
