Observing and recording the weather is a daily activity in many preschool classrooms. And with the weather beginning to change (hopefully), this would be a fun learning activity to do with the kids.
Included in this post are the learning benchmarks (LB) to be covered during this fun part of your day.
Start by discussing different kinds of weather during Circle Time (LB: Use common weather-related vocabulary such as; rainy, snowy, sunny, and windy. Identify basic concepts associated with night/day and seasons).
Then using chalk/white boards, practice making simple weather symbols (LB: Understand that pictures and symbols have meaning and that pring carries a message).

The "Weather Reporter" can be a job that rotates daily. The Weather Reporter goes outside with an assistant, but it could also be done by looking out a window (LB: Use senses to explore and observe materials and natureal phenomena).
