Guest Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Sorry, I am in a poster mood can you tell! Ok I've made a small (A4) chart for use with my own and minded children. I am looking for nice pictures to illustrate the weather. On clipart I found some cute symbols but of the 2 styles I liked neither had all the types of weather I'd like! My plan is to laminate it all and add velcro so the children can add the relevant bits. I have also done their names with a small picture to fit in the extra spaces to serve as self registration. Seems a bit OTT I know but with Ofsted coming soon.... Anyway, if anyone has a link or a set that includes wind, sun, rain and cloud at least but preferably snow too I'd be very grateful.

Guest Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 I saw this and hope it helps. First go to www.hobbycraft.co.uk - sorry I have no idea how to put in proper links! Then choose Kids Ideas from the drop down selection and type in weather to search, hopefully you will have an idea a layout as well as clear pictures, that I think you can copy.

Guest Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Some great ideas, folks. The one I've always struggled with depicting is 'windy' and that seems to be the weather we've most needed to show recently. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Children in my nursery painted pictures about different types of weather. We scanned them into the computer and used them on the weather chart. later some children did more pictures on Dazzle (computer graphics program) and we added these. We have a large selection so we have to choose between eg 'windy day leaves blowing down' and 'windy day no leaves left' ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorna Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 This are the symbols I have on my weather chart at school- the children do replace them with their own if they choose. Hope they are helpful L weather_icons.doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie A. Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Here are some more pictures that you could use for "windy". I always use Microsoft clipart and can usually find what I am looking for. windy_pictures.doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
