Hands-on Activity: Dressing for Weather
This lesson plan gives students the opportunity to interpret weather data by making decisions about the appropriate clothing to wear. The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats and/or Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing by Judi and Ron Barrett are used to introduce this idea. Students bring in clothing and use magazines to make posters showing the appropriate clothing to wear based on the weather background they draw. Outlines of students are then traced on large paper and students draw clothing based on certain weather conditions.
