About this worksheet

Climates Around the World helps third graders connect observations with scientific explanations instead of memorizing isolated facts. Students may remember a science word but miss the evidence that connects it to the observation or design problem. This worksheet uses short evidence-based situations so students must read the setup, identify the pattern, and choose the answer that fits the science idea named in the title. Students read short observations, choose evidence-based claims, compare examples, and select explanations that match the investigation. Support versions use familiar examples and direct wording. Standard and challenge versions add closer distractors and require more comparison. Encourage your child to point to the evidence in the prompt before choosing an answer. If the answer does not explain the observation or solve the stated problem, it is probably a distractor. That habit builds careful science reasoning and prepares students for longer investigations.

  • Use evidence from observations
  • Match claims to science ideas
