      Expansion: Students could graph their weather findings over time and use those graphs to learn how to interpret data and predict future weather patterns.

      ENL: ENL students can expand their weather and observational vocabulary through constant repetition of particular words and images.  The spinner is very visual, offering a graphic representation of the weather pattern they are recording.

    Tracking the weather serves as a perfect educational-and entertaining-introduction to the natural sciences. Your child will learn to see details and patterns in atmospheric conditions. A simple weather spinner provides an accessible tool for your child to improve her observation and analysis ability, important scientific skills she will use for the rest of her life.

      STANDARDS:SCI.K.2.3 2010 Describe in words and pictures the changes in weather from month to month and season to season ADAPTATION: Teacher could insert pictures next to the nouns in the month songs (i.e. a sled for sledding, a skier for skiing, etc)  EXTENSION: Teacher could have students practice writing the word January and draw a picture of what they believe encompasses the of month

    Weather is classified under Earth Science (instead of Physical Science) as demonstrated by the second number in the standard being a "2."

Grade K temperature making predictions cause and effect weather snowman

shared by Mary Miller on 11 Feb 13 - No Cached
  • Living in sunny Southern California, we don’t really have opportunities to make snowmen, so using a simple pre-printed sheet with the outline of a puddle and an overturned paper bowl the kids made their own melty, sunshine snowmen. They put the usual accessories on, with the exception of the sunglasses, and then wrote a sentence about where their snowman should move to or what happened to him. A lot of bang for the buck.

      K.2.3=Describe in words and pictures the changes in weather from month to month and season to season K.NS.3=Generate questions and make observations about natural processes.  This activity could be extended for special needs children by allowing them to explain to the teacher what they are thinking, and then the teacher could help the student express themselves through writing.  Kindergarteners don't know how to write very well yet, anyway, so they will probably need a lot of help and creative teachers to understand their written work.

    In this activity, students make a melting snowman out of paper, then they write about the snowman.  For example, they might say why the snowman is melting.  This activity incorporates a lot of language arts, but it also allows young children to think scientifically and notice things about their environment, such as weather and temperature.

      The Nature of Science 2.1  Use a scientific notebook to record predictions, questions and observations about data with pictures, numbers or in words. SCI.2.2.2 2010 Experience and describe wind as the motion of the air. SCI.2.2.3 2010 Chart or graph weather observations such as cloud cover, cloud type and type of precipitation on a daily basis over a period of weeks. ADAPTATION: Low Ability and/or ELL students can draw pictures in place of written observations.  EXTENSION:  Students can my a pictograph of common trends they observed during their observation

      2.2.3 Chart or graph weather observations such as cloud cover, cloud type and type of precipitation on a daily basis over a period of weeks. 2.NS.3 Generate questions and make observations about natural processes. Students who are having a hard time getting a handle on the concepts presented in this lesson could be given additional time.  Really, any adaptation you make to this activity for slower learners would be a good thing for all students, so additional pictures and resources should be shared with all students.  Time is the only thing I could think of that could become an issue for students, so slower students could be given more time and one-on-one teacher help for this activity.

    This activity uses "the cloud book" by Tomie DePaola to introduce the different types of clouds to students.  As an add on, the teacher could pull up photos of the different cloud types on the computer and show them on the overhead for students.  They should also discuss the purpose of these clouds and why there are different types.  I chose this lesson because it allows students to do a hands-on activity where they make pictures of clouds using cotton balls. This is not your average note-taking, textbook reading science lesson.

    Clouds and weather are usually classified under Earth Science and you cited an Earth Science standard, so you should probably tag it as such.

      Standards: 2.DP.2 - Day to day and over the seasons, observe, measure, record and recognize patterns and ask questions about features of weather. (2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.2.3, 2.2.4, 2.2.5, 2.2.6) Investigate how the position of the sun and moon and the shape of the moon change in observable patterns. (2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9)

      Extension: Students could use this activity as a stepping stone to study the phases of the moon in greater depth. The next step could be to model the changes of the moon as it rotates the earth by using a flashlight as the sun.

      Adaptation: This is a great physical representation to descripe words that may have no meaning to ELL students. Students are more likely to remember the phases because there is food involved and it was studied in a casual setting.
  • Andrew Todd on 15 Feb 13
     
    Students can learn the phases of the moon as they enjoy a tasty snack. Students open Oreos up and remove ice to make the different phases of the moon.
