Questions about Our Weather Chart
What does the Our Weather Chart worksheet cover?
It practices using a class weather chart to describe and predict the weather — 7 questions for Kindergarten, all on NGSS K-ESS2-1: Watch the weather and describe what it usually does. The instruction to students is “Read the chart, then answer the questions”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
Which NGSS performance expectation does Our Weather Chart practice?
K-ESS2-1, under Earth and Space Science for Kindergarten. The published performance expectation reads: “Use and share observations of local weather conditions to describe patterns over time.” The worksheet assesses that performance expectation rather than a paraphrase of it.
What age or grade is this worksheet for?
Our Weather Chart is written for Kindergarten, typically ages 5-6. It is one of the sheets on K-ESS2-1, so it suits any student working at that standard — including older students revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Does Our Weather Chart come with an answer key?
Yes. All 7 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
How many different versions of Our Weather Chart can I print?
25 — one per student, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
Is Our Weather Chart free to print and photocopy?
Yes. Our Weather Chart, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
