Application of Concepts
Students can apply the weather and seasons concepts they learn with engaging activities.
Students color, fill in the blanks and read more about our weather with our Weather and the Water Cycle Booklet. They will read and reread this booklet at school and at home to their parents.
This weather and seasons flipbook is sure to be a hit. They color, cut, glue, staple and read this informative book that reinforces the weather concepts and vocabulary your students have learned.
Students record the temperatures on these individual thermometers that they keep at their seats. Laminate the thermometers and students can use dry-erase markers to write and wipe each day. Post the larger version on your wall to model or have students take turns marking the daily temperatures.
Interactive activities are always a big hit with young students. Have them work independently or with partners on these engaging activities to solidify the weather concepts even further.
TIP: Have students collect notes, vocabulary, individual thermometers, and foldable activities in a notebook to keep, review and share with their parents.
At the end of the unit, write about weather and seasons topics your students have learned. Share weather and seasons cut-outs for students to attach to their papers and color. There are many opportunities for your students to apply the concepts they have learned.
