The class can can identify and explain how satellites images can be be used to forecast and predict what might happen to the weather on future dates.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to teach the children to explore and describe different ways of using forms of technology to measure and forecast what might be happening in the weather
Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to identify and explain how technology can be used to monitor the weather, a worksheet to record how technology can be used to describe how the weather is changing and a vocabulary word bank to produce a weather forecast for the UK using satellite images.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore and describe different ways of using forms of technology to measure and forecast the weather to make predictions about future dates,
This lesson is part of a computing scheme of work to get the children to investigate how to use different forms of technological sensors to record, monitor and present weather information and data. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
