Copiague Middle School’s English as a New Language entering students are learning to be meteorologists. After studying weather and temperature vocabulary, they worked in groups to give a forecast for a location of their choice. Each group chose a city, researched its weather and temperature, and created their own prediction. After designing a poster of the weather, they wrote a script for their report which they presented to their classmates. The project was a culmination of the weather unit in which students learned to read thermometers, describe temperatures such as hot, warm, cool/cold, and how to ask and answer questions about weather. They also discovered ways to describe weather in different places, read weather maps, watch weather reports and understand how reporters forecast the weather.
