apple Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 Hi there folks my collegues in year 1 are doing a weather centre role play and have run out of ideas (I said I know just the place to get some a few ideas so far: televion- cardboard box (for the presenters to present from) map of the world selection of clothes for different types of weather Would be ever so grateful for further ideas thanks in anticipation liza
catma Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 Stick your world map on a magnet board and make magnetic weather symbols like the old fashioned weather men on BBC! Weather station equipment for real: rain gauge, wind anemometer, barometer? What's it called now, a stevensons screen?? Sounds like fun!! Cx
Rea Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 ...and be prepared to cheat. We used a rain guage last year, but the rain never managed to get down the opening, so I used to run ahead and put some water in after it had rained otherwise there was nothing for them to measure.
Sue R Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 we use empty big Coke bottles, with the tops cut off and turned upside down to make a 'funnel', you could always put a bigger funnel in, though? (and watch it fall over, possibly.... ) Sue
Sue R Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 Actually, it's ANY big plastic drink type bottle!
Rea Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 tut tut, was'nt there just a post about capitalism????
hali Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 we made a huge map of britain and laminated pictures of clouds, sun etc and the children stuck them onto the map like the weather people do on the telly
Guest Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 Good software called My world has weather map for uk symbols to place and can print out. Sherston software I think.
