Children will start with a rewind task. Children will recap on prior learning identifying different weather types such as sun and rain.
Children will be introduced to the new learning by reflecting and then discussing what the definition of weather is. This will provide a discussion point due to weather being fairly complicated to define. Through small steps children will learn about how the weather describes what is happening in the atmosphere.
Children will complete two tasks. The first defining what weather is an then after further input identifying 4 of the things that happen in the atmosphere such as cloudiness.
A chilli challenge is provided to extend children’s learning. All children can be provided with the chilli challenge - the differentiation is based on how children access the task.
