About this worksheet
Weather changes from day to day, but a record can reveal patterns that memory misses. Kindergartners may describe only today’s sky or assume that one rainy morning means the whole week was rainy. This worksheet uses a visual record: rows of weather pictures that count the days of each kind. On each question the child counts the pictures in every row and circles the weather that happened the most, or on the even-numbered versions the weather that happened the fewest times. The answers are weather pictures, so no word has to be read.
Support pages use three rows with clear differences. Challenge pages use four rows with closer counts, requiring more careful observation without asking children to forecast. A weather picture stands for the main weather on one day; real days can include sun, wind, and clouds together. Point to each row as your child counts it. The important science practice is using the record as evidence, not guessing from a favorite kind of weather or from what is happening outside right now.
What your child will learn
- Read counts in a weather picture record
- Find the weather that happened the most
- Find the weather that happened the fewest times
- Compare rows by counting the pictures
NGSS standard: K-ESS2-1
Worked example
The sun row has five pictures and the rain row has two. Sunny weather happened more often because five is more than two.
Common mistake
Answering from today’s weather instead of reading the whole record shown.
Helpful hint
Count the pictures in every row before choosing.
