Weather Wonders: A Fun Introduction to Our Lesson!
🎉 Welcome to Weather Explorers! 🌈
Hello, little scientists! Today, we’re going to embark on a magical journey into the world of weather! But before we dive in, let’s start with something fun!
🌬️ Weather Mystery Box 🌧️
What You'll Need:
- A mystery box (you can use a cardboard box or a basket)
- A few small items that represent different types of weather:
- A sun (like a yellow ball or a paper cut-out)
- A raindrop (blue glitter or a small water bottle)
- A cloud (a cotton ball)
- A snowflake (white paper cut-out or artificial snow)
How to Start:
- Gather the Class: Have all the children sit in a circle around you.
- Present the Mystery Box: Show them the mystery box, but keep it closed. Tell them that inside it are some surprises related to the weather!
- Ask the Question: “Can anyone guess what might be inside this box? What do you think weather feels like?” Encourage them to shout out their guesses.
- Reveal the Items: One by one, take out each item from the box. As you pull out each weather symbol, ask the children:
- “Who can tell me what this is?”
- “What kind of weather does this represent?”
- Create a Weather Chart: As you identify each item, have the children help make a large chart on the board with pictures or drawings of the weather types discussed (sunny, rainy, cloudy, snowy).
- Sing a Weather Song: After all items have been revealed, engage the children in a simple chant or song about weather (e.g., “If it’s sunny, clap your hands!”).
Wrap-Up:
Now that we’ve discovered these weather wonders, let’s explore each type of weather and talk about how it affects our world! Are you ready to become weather experts today?
