Welcome

Hi there! Today we will learn about weather!

Weather is what is happening outside right now. Is it sunny? Is it rainy? Is it windy?

Let's look outside & find out!

What Do You See?

Look Outside!

Look out a window or think about what it looks like outside right now.

Is it sunny or cloudy outside today?

The Sun

The Sun

The water cycle showing evaporation, condensation, precipitation, collection, and groundwater

The sun is a big, bright star in the sky. It keeps us warm & gives us light!

When the sun is out, we call it a sunny day. Sunny days are great for playing outside!

Rain

Sometimes clouds cover the sun, & rain falls from the sky!

Rain helps flowers & trees grow. Plants need water, just like you do!

Without rain, the grass would not be green & flowers would not bloom.

Do you like sunny days or rainy days more? Why?

Wind and Snow

Types of weather: sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy, and windy illustrated with friendly icons

Wind

Wind is moving air! You cannot see it, but you can feel it on your face.

Wind blows leaves off trees. It makes flags wave. It can even fly a kite!

Snow

When it gets really cold, rain turns into snow!

Snow is white & fluffy & cold. Each snowflake is tiny & special.

Snow covers the ground like a big white blanket!

What do you like to do in the snow? Or if you have not seen snow, what would you want to do?

Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter

The Four Seasons

The weather changes through the year. We call these changes seasons. There are four seasons!


Spring: Flowers bloom! Baby animals are born! It rains a lot and everything turns green.


Summer: It is hot and sunny! Days are long. Time for swimming and ice cream!


Fall: Leaves change colors: red, orange, yellow! The air gets cool and crispy.


Winter: It is cold! Sometimes it snows. Days are short and nights are long. Time for warm coats and hot cocoa!

What is your favorite season? Spring, summer, fall, or winter?

What Do We Wear?

Dressing for the Weather

We wear different clothes for different weather!


When it is sunny & hot, we wear shorts, t-shirts, & sunglasses!


When it is rainy, we wear rain boots & a raincoat. Some people carry an umbrella!


When it is cold & snowy, we wear warm coats, mittens, hats, & scarves!


When it is windy, we zip up our jackets so the wind does not make us too cold!


Picking the right clothes helps us stay comfy no matter what the weather is!
