Weather watch – Foundation CLE

  • Publication Date: May, 2016
  • Type of Resource: Practical activity/investigation

    • This online resource helps teach young students about the weather.

    The resource is an ASSIST Connected Learning Experience (CLE) designed to help teach Foundation-year students about the weather.

    Description: In this investigation students investigate weather and how it affects them in the context of observing cloud formation observing the effects of wind and describing changes in temperature.

    Learning intentions

    Students will be able to:

    • explore and make observations about features of the weather (cloud and cloud formation wind temperature) using the senses;
    • respond to questions about familiar objects and events such as different features of the weather;
    • engage in discussions about observations of weather features (cloud and cloud formation wind changes in temperature);
    • use drawings and language to represent ideas about features of the weather (cloud and cloud formation wind temperature);
    • use comparisons to describe the strength of wind or temperature of the air.

    New Australian Curriculum Code: AC9S1U02
