Big idea

Weather can stay the same or change during one day.

Words

  • morning early part of the day
  • afternoon after noon
  • same alike
  • change become different

All words on the Word Wall

Talk together

  • What did you see this morning?
  • What do you see now?
  • What stayed the same?

Get ready

  • Monthly log, weather cards and crayons; choose one morning and afternoon on the same date.

Safety

  • A grown-up stays close. Never look at the Sun; use hats, sunscreen and shade breaks. The adult checks surfaces first; do not touch anything hot.

How to help

Let your child listen, look and try before you explain. Point to the next picture if needed. Accept drawing, pointing or a voice response; writing is optional. Save the child’s own work with a date. Ask for a clue from the picture, source or test instead of supplying an answer. Notice what changed after your child tried the task.
