E A W E H R T
Have you ever wondered why
some days are sunny and warm,
while others are rainy and cool?
That’s all because of the weather!
Today, we’ll learn about what
weather is, its different
conditions, and why studying it is
important in our daily lives.
Now, let's talk about the
weather. Can you share
what kind of weather
you’ve seen recently?
What was it like?

do you see in each

Basic Characteristics of
Weather
Now let’s talk about the basic
characteristics of weather:
temperature, wind speed, and
humidity. These are important
elements that help us describe and
understand the weather. Let’s begin
by looking at some visuals.
Look at these pictures.
• Process
Can you describe what you
Let’s focus on these terms:
temperature,
wind speed,
and
humidity.
Temperature tells us how hot or
cold it is.
Wind speed measures how fast
the wind is blowing.
Humidity tells us how much
moisture is in the air.
These are some
characteristics of weather :
• Air temperature: hot, warm,
cool, cold
• Air pressure: high pressure,
low pressure
• Wind speed: calm, breezy,
windy, gusty
• Wind direction: north, south,
east, west
• Humidity: dry, humid
• Rainfall: light rain, heavy
rain, drizzle
• Cloud cover: clear skies,
partly cloudy, cloudy, overcast
Observing and
Interpreting Weather
A thermometer
measures
temperature. It
tells us how hot or
cold it is. For
example, 25°C is
warm, while 10°C
is cool."
A wind vane shows
the direction of the
wind. It tells us if
the wind is coming
from the north,
south, east, or
west."
A hygrometer
measures
humidity, or how
much water is in
the air. High
humidity means
the air feels sticky
or moist."

Differentiated
Group
Activity
Group 1: Weather
Artists
• Task: Draw or color pictures showing
different weather conditions (e.g., sunny,
rainy, windy).
• Activity: Work together to label their
drawings with simple descriptions (e.g.,
“Sunny: The sun is shining”).
• Output: Present their weather chart to
the class by pointing to the pictures and
describing the weather.
Group 2: Weather
Reporters
• Task: Act like weather forecasters
and describe the weather of the day
(based on Group 1’s observations or
pre-planned scenarios).
• Activity: Practice using simple
sentences like, “Today is sunny, and
the temperature is 30°C. It is a good
day to play outside!”
• Output: Deliver their weather report
to the class using their own words and
enthusiasm.
Group 3: Weather Planners
• Task: Match different weather
conditions with suitable activities.
• Activity: Use a matching worksheet
or pictures (e.g., "Sunny = Play
outside," "Rainy = Use an umbrella").
• Output: Share their matching pairs
with the class and explain why the
activities fit the weather.
Group 4: Weather Tools
Experts
• Task: Match pictures of weather
tools (e.g., thermometer, rain gauge)
with their names and what they
measure.
• Activity: Use simple flashcards and
discuss as a group.
• Output: Explain one weather tool
and how it is used in one or two
sentences (e.g., “A thermometer
measures temperature”).

sunny, cloudy, or rainy. Use a
thermometer to measure and
record the temperature.
Share their observations
with the class using a
simple chart. Below is the
