Lesson title: Using weather data to record, interpret and predict the weather (Part 1)
Drawn from National Curriculum Key stage 2 Geography:
Geographical enquiry and skills
1 In undertaking geographical enquiry, pupils should be taught to:
Analyze evidence and draw conclusions
2 In developing geographical skills, pupils should be taught:
to use secondary sources of information, including aerial photographs [for example the internet,]
Knowledge and understanding of patterns and processes
3 Pupils should be taught to recognize and explain patterns made by individual physical and human features in the environment
Key Stage 2 Mathematics – National Curriculum
Solving numerical problems
Pupils should be taught to:
choose, use and combine any of the four number operations to solve word problems involving numbers in ‘real life’
National Curriculum – Sc1 Scientific enquiry
a) use a wide range of methods, including diagrams, drawings, tables, bar charts, line graphs and ICT, to communicate data in an appropriate and systematic manner
Considering evidence and evaluating
i) make comparisons and identify simple patterns or associations in their own observations and measurements or other data
ii) use observations, measurements or other data to draw conclusions
Learning objectives:
- To be able to use secondary sources of information, including aerial photographs [for example the internet]
- To be able to analyse evidence and draw conclusions
- To be able to recognise and explain patterns made by the data leading to basic predictions
