Climate and Weather

Ah, weather. Without it, what would we talk about? In this unit, students will not only learn how to talk about the weather but also why it exists and what impact it has on their lives. They will be introduced to the causes of weather while experiencing some of the most amazing, and scary, weather conditions on this planet.

"Climate and Weather" is in stock! Order today!

Climate and Weather consists of…

  • One incredibly full (and highly interactive) DVD containing hundreds of videos, animations, still images and text frames to support five teacher-directed video lessons, plus five dual-mode video quizzes and a 50-term illustrated glossary. You can use the DVD to support our “Ready-to-eat” Lessons or to complement your own lessons with the “Visuals à la Carte.”
  • One 128-page Teacher’s Guide containing lesson plans and student blackline masters. The printed lessons provide standards-based curriculum materials as well as simple-to-follow directions on when and how to use the DVD. You’ll also find strategies and dialogue prompts that ensure students are active learners, rather than passive viewers.
  • Student blackline masters for each lesson include…
    • ACTIViewer™ recording sheets that students complete during the video lesson,
    • hands-on activities, and
    • grade-level-appropriate reading and writing activities, which help you assess student understanding of the content.
  • Formal written assessment for each lesson.
