- Name clouds and connect them to weather.
- Identify the four seasons and compare hot and cold weather.
- Use temperature and repeated observations to notice patterns.
- Make a simple weather prediction from evidence.
Lessons
- Observe Weather and Clouds - Learn to notice the sky and name cloud clues.
- Seasons and Temperature - Compare hot and cold weather across the year.
- Predict Weather from Clues - Use observations to make a simple forecast.
Parent guide
Use the day’s weather, a window view, and a simple weather journal to keep the ideas visible and concrete. Ask your child to say what they observed before they try to explain it, and to use the words cloud, season, temperature, and predict as often as they can.
Completion
A student finishes when they can describe the sky, name the seasons, compare temperature changes, and make a simple weather prediction using clues.
