WEATHER

Look up. Look closely.

The weather offers daily opportunities to notice patterns and practise careful description.

TRY TOGETHER AT HOME

A small investigation

Draw a simple weather symbol each day. At the end of the week, count how often each symbol appears.

Think like a scientist

  • Describe what you notice.
  • Ask a question and make a prediction.
  • Explain what you discovered, using your observations.

Adapt the activity to your child’s age and interests. Ask the classroom teacher how it connects with current learning.
