Look Up In The Sky, What Do You See?
Your local Valdosta news station needs your help! The weather man is sick and the station needs to know what the forecast is for today. The station also needs to know the nightly forecast because the meteorologist will not be back in time for the nightly weather. Remember what you learned today and if you need help review over the eBook.
Lesson 1 Directions:
1. Take out a sheet of computer paper and fold it in half.
2. One side of the paper will be for the day and the other half will be for the night.
3. Use crayons, cotton balls, sticker stars, and construction paper to create your picture of the weather.
4. You can make up your weather however you want it to be for that day and night. Remember to include what can be seen in the day sky and the night sky such as clouds, sun, moon, and stars. Also, what kind of phase is your moon?
Lesson 2 Directions: ( I will see the forecast before hand to make sure there will be clouds outside.)
1. Have the students go outside and witness the sky during the daytime.
2. When the students look up in the sky they should see different types of clouds.
3. Provide the students with a picture of the different kinds of clouds with the name so they can correctly identify them.
4. Students need to describe what they saw in the sky and write it down on a piece of paper. At least two sentences.
5. Students need to then draw what they see in the day sky and remember to include what can be seen during the day sky such as the sun, clouds, birds, and airplanes.
