"Weather Week"

So this week Adley's learning "theme" is weather so we decided to make a weather chart that she could change daily. It turned out cute so I thought I'd share!

What you will need (you can modify with what materials you have or would rather use!)
Colored index cards
1/2 sheet of poser paper
Tape
Stick on Velcro (I found some for 1.49 at wal-mart by the command strips!)
Markers
Zip-loc bag



-write the days of the week on your index cards and tape them down the left side of the poster board

-make cards for each type of weather (we did rainy, sunny, windy, cloudy, stormy and snow) and let your child draw pictures on each card to represent the type of weather.

-place a piece of stick on velcro to the back of each weather card. Place a piece of the attachment velcro across from each day of the week.

-put a piece of the velcro on the back of the poster board and attach the attachment piece to the Ziploc bag. this can hold all of your extra weather cards!

-tape your finished poster by the back door, so that each morning your child can look outside and forecast the weather for the day, and place the correct card by that day of the week!

We are having fun with our weather chart! Hope you do too!
