Rain and Weather Lesson Plans and Activities
Spring showers, clouds and weather patterns. Below is a lesson shape that works across K-5, plus 18 printable pages sorted by grade.
Lesson steps
1. Introduce the theme
Open by connecting Rain and Weather to something students already know about it. Take what they offer without correcting, so you learn what they think before you teach.
2. Teach the skill
The theme is the hook, not the lesson. Name the actual skill the practice pages target and model it once, thinking out loud.
3. Practice together
Work two or three items as a class, with students supplying each step.
4. Independent practice
Hand out the pages for your grade below. Circulate while students work.
5. Share and close
Two or three students share their work. Tie it back to Rain and Weather so the theme lands as more than decoration.
