3rd Grade Weather and Climate Worksheets

Ages 8-9 · 7 sub-topics · Free previews · Print-ready PDFs

These weather and climate worksheets for 3rd grade cover what the air does each day and over many years. Children name cloud types, order the steps of a thunderstorm and a hurricane, and read weather maps, tables and bar charts of temperature, rain and wind speed (NGSS 3-ESS2-1). Climate pages compare a seaside town with an inland town and a hot desert with a tropical rainforest (3-ESS2-2). Safety and design pages cover tornado watches and warnings, levees, houses on stilts, sandbags and lightning rods (3-ESS3-1), and the topic also has weather tool pages. There are 26 sheets, each with an answer key.
