World Meteorological Day - 23rd March
World Meteorological Day takes place every year on 23rd March and commemorates the establishment of the World Meteorological Organization. This collection includes a number of activities looking at the weather and climate, from measuring weather phenomena such as rainfall, wind direction and speed, to using 3D printers to create 3D models of temperature data. Also included is a video explaining how mathematical modelling is used to predict the weather.
More details about the day can be found on the World Meteorological Organization's website.
Resources for primary pupils are at the top of the list while those suitable for secondary are in the second half of the list.

Data Collection
This STEAM activity gives pupils the opportunity to set up a weather station, using recycled materials and to collect data over a period of 1-4 weeks. The resources gives instructions to support with the making of an anemometer, windsock, compass and a rain gauge. Throughout these activities pupils will expand...
Wild Weather
This resource looks at the impact of climate change, in particular flooding and drought, and how science can be used to mitigate against it. Students first explore perceptions about climate change, then look at ways to communicate the significance of climate change to different groups of people. They then explore...
