The weather symbols are fixed to the chart with a small dab of blue tack which makes them interchangeable. Cold – cover a strip of paper with patches of brightly coloured fabric and a fringe at either end, to represent a scarf.Rain – cover a tear-drop shaped piece of card with silver foil.Cloud – cover a cloud template with plenty of PVA glue and apply lots of fluffy cotton wool.Sun – cover a small disc of card with orange crêpe paper and edge the sun with a small fringe of orange or yellow paper.Here are some ideas and how you can represent them: Get your child to make a list of all the different types of weather they would like to include on their chart. In large letters label the chart, ‘Today the Weather is….’ Draw a large square below this, which is the area in which the child will fix the relevant weather for each day. Start by using a large sheet of paper as the base for the chart. Keep the chart near a door or window and get youngsters to check the weather each day, this is much more effective when the chart is their own handiwork. Creating a weather chart is particularly useful for making weather observations on a daily basis.
