Example Questions
Example Question #1 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
How do we know it will be hot in the summer?
We guess
Weather patterns
Magic
Weather patterns
Weather patterns allow us to predict what conditions will be like during other seasons and times of the year. During winter we can predict it will be cold, in summer we can predict it will be hot, etc..
Example Question #2 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
Which is a local weather condition that we could track for patterns?
What time you wake up every day
If my mom thinks it is hot or cold
The temperature
The temperature
The temperature is a weather condition that could be measured and recorded every day. We could look for patterns within the temperatures to make predictions about the weather.
Example Question #3 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
If it has rained every day at 2:00 PM for the past week, what can we predict will happen today at 2:00 PM?
It will rain
It will snow
It will be sunny
It will rain
We can make predictions based on weather condition patterns. If it has rained every day at the same time we can assume or predict it will happen again.
Example Question #4 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
Based on patterns in weather conditions, what usually comes with lightning?
Rain
Sun
Snow
Rain
When we see lightning usually it is followed with or it is already raining. Rain and lightning are both present during thunderstorms so we can predict based on that pattern it will be rainy if there is lightning.
Example Question #5 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
We can find patterns within weather conditions.
False
True
True
This is a true statement. Data can be collected and weather conditions observed to find patterns to help us forecast and make a prediction about the weather to come.
Example Question #1 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
How does the weather influence our clothing choices?
We dress how we feel and the weather changes for us
The weather does not influence our clothing choices
We dress based on the weather to feel comfortable
We dress based on the weather to feel comfortable
Based on what the weather is like that day we choose our clothing or change our clothing. If the weather predicts the temperatures will be low or it is the middle of a very cold month I know I will need a jacket. If it is a summer day I can assume it will be warm and will choose the clothes to make me feel comfortable.
Example Question #1 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
Which picture best represents a day when the temperature would be warm?
The correct answer choice shows a sunny day with very few clouds and no hints of rain or snow. The other pictures show a cold snowy day and a rainy day. Based on weather patterns it is more likely to be cooler or cold when it rains or snows.
Example Question #8 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
What is a pattern?
Something very old
Something tasty
Something that repeats
Something that repeats
A pattern is something that repeats over and over again. It can be numbers in math, beats in a song, or weather conditions during different seasons. We can track the weather each month and predict what it will be like the next year.
Example Question #9 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
Based on this photo, we can assume it is ___________ outside.
Warm and sunny
Cold and snowy
Warm and snowy
Cold and snowy
Based on this photo we can see clues about the local weather conditions. It appears to be snowing and there is snow on the ground and the women is wearing heavy winter clothing like a scarf, gloves, and hat. We can assume based on this information and patterns over time about what winter weather is like- cold and snowy.
Example Question #10 : Describe Local Weather Conditions And Patterns
What does the word weather mean?
What people think will happen next week
What it is like inside
What it is like outside right now
What it is like outside right now
Weather is what it is like outside at that time. The weather can include temperature, humidity, precipitation and type, winds, etc..
