Weather Walking


Have children dramatize various weather conditions by walking as if they were feeling each kind of weather. You can suggest possible weather conditions such as windy, puddles after rain, very cold, very hot, and walking in autumn leaves. The class can weave a story around the weather, becoming more involved when children can imagine the feeling of a particular weather condition. Or children can act out a daily weather report, starting with a sunrise and ending with a sunset, or can pretend they are walking in various substances or places (e.g., on eggs, around a sleeping tiger, in a dark house).
