What is the weather today? A question is asked by several people every day. Introduce your class to different weather patterns and seasons by providing this chart for them to complete every morning. This weatherboard is writeable, allowing the child to write the weather on and wipe it off again at the end of the week. As you can capture the weather for the whole week, it is a great Mathematical tool for data handling.
Your child will improve on their language skills as they explain and discuss what the weather is like. Use this opportunity to discuss other aspects of the weather, e.g. what clothes to wear, what we can play in this kind of weather, etc.
Your child will learn time concepts such as yesterday, today and tomorrow by writing on the weather board every morning.
Introduce your child to data handling as an early mathematics skill.
