If the weather is nice, take your students for a walk and let them draw while they are outside. If that’s not possible, you’ll need a window that lets them observe the weather while drawing.
When students are drawing, you may need to remind them to pay attention to the four aspects of the weather that are discussed in this lesson: what you see in the sky, the temperature, the wind, and rain/snow. We’ve included icons in the corner of the drawing sheet as a reminder.
Consider having students repeat this activity when the weather changes. Drawing gives them a tool that will help them pay attention to changes in the weather that they may otherwise overlook.

Want your students to start paying attention to the weather? Try these two activities:
Have students take turns being a “weather reporter.” Each day, the weather reporter describes the day’s weather. Is it rainy or dry? Warm or cold? Windy or still?
Create a bulletin board or a science notebook where students can use pictures or words to record weather each day.
