Puzzles, quizzes and small experiments carry the science in this DK Eyewitness Workbook on weather, where the learning happens through doing rather than reading alone.
The exercises move across air pressure and the atmosphere, how water circulates through the environment, wind and cloud formation, climate zones, forecasting and a changing climate, with each topic introduced briefly and then tested through activity. Answers are worked out on the page, which suits revision as well as first exposure, and the practical tasks use materials a household is likely to have. The workbook format means it can be used steadily across a term or picked up in short sessions.
Inside the covers:
• Clouds, wind, water circulation and climate zones introduced in order
• Quizzes and puzzles used to check understanding as the topics progress
• Simple weather experiments that can be run at home
• Write-in workbook format suited to independent study
Suited to primary and lower-secondary students, home learners and teachers looking for supporting activity material, published by DK and available from Boipoka.
