What about clothing? Introduce by reading a book, there are lots of books about snow. That should be a good introduction. Talk about warm weather and cold weather clothes. What do you wear. (Do you have a weather bear?)| Dress a bear or child outline with different clothes you have drawn and cut out. If you glue old pieces of cloth to some paper it might look nicer. This could be the exploration phase, if you work with all the ideas they have. For the concept application phase. Each child could chose a temperature. Have a child out line on a worksheet and color clothes on them for warm weather or | |
cold and then put them on the correct side of the bulletin board. You might also want to glue children's clothing from catalogs on index cards and have them sort them at a center. Use a sun and a snowflake for your concepts so everything is the same and easy for them to identify. Add the words hot and cold too. I would probably put up two thermometer pictures too, one showing hot and one a cold temperature. Maybe make up a little song with a verse for each kind of weather. I would probably not talk about tornadoes as that seems to worry my little ones. That is a lot to get ready for tomorrow. Hope it helps.
