Introduction (Teacher) [ Student Page ] Title Introduction Learners Standards Process Resources Credits Teacher Page I am not sure where this lesson originated; I just knew I wanted to create a lesson on weather for 3 rd graders. This lesson is about weather and many aspects of weather, such as where a type of weather occurs in the United States, if there are warning signs that a type of weather is about it occur, the definitions of types of weather, how types of weather form, and how serious they can get.
