Description
We all experience the changes in weather - some very dramatic and unexpected. This book aims to enable children to make sense of weather reports, and to encourage them to take records of local conditions and interpret their observations. The experiments to explain the basic principles of weather can be set up in the home and garden, using simple, everyday articles. All have been planned and tested and photographed step-by-step. Suitable for Key Stages 2, 3, and 4 of the National Curriculum.
