For a nation that is infamous for its obsession with the weather, and with talking about the weather, you would think we would also love teaching the weather – wouldn’t you?

And yet, when asked what topics teachers find dull to teach (particularly at Key Stage 3), or that students find difficult to grasp, one of the most frequently named topic is often the dear old weather!

This resource was created to accompany this feature from Jo Coles on teaching weather in KS3 geography, and includes a PowerPoint file of two learning grid templates to help you and your students.
