To make connections to climate change, teachers can explain that, due to human activities, weather is becoming more erratic and climate conditions are changing. Teachers can also use this lesson plan to explain the impact climate change is having on snow and other precipitation.
To prepare students to discuss disaster preparedness with their families, students can watch this video or read this ebook to see an example of disaster preparedness in action.
Teachers can use this video to support students’ understanding of weather vs climate.
