This weather activity supports NGSS MS-ESS2-5 by teaching students about the tools and instruments used to measure weather. It includes BOTH a simple reading about weather instruments and a corresponding worksheet.

First, students read a 1-page article about different weather tools.

Next, students complete a graphic organizer where they identify the name and the function of weather tools by looking at their image.

Last, students read quick REAL-WORLD scenarios and decide which weather instrument would be used in that situation.

Every question in the worksheets is included in the text, so no prior knowledge is required.

Included Instruments: anemometer, barometer, windsock, hygrometer, thermometer, rain gauge, weather balloon, weather satellite
