Forecast Weather Lesson – ASL

Description

With this Forecast Weather Lesson, you can add hands-on, engaging activities to your weather unit. Use the interactive reader and activities to teach your student about the forecast. Students will color and answer questions in the mini-book, identify and match everyday activities with the appropriate forecast, and practice writing their days of the week while tracking the forecast with the 7-day forecast tracker.

Weather Forecast worksheets include additional activity ideas for this mini-lesson on the teacher and caregiver guides. Ideal for use in the classroom or at home. Using ASL with your students improves their cognitive abilities. For example, the sign language anchor wall chart will help your students remember new words.

Benefits of using Sign Language in your Weather Forecast.

ASL can be used with all types of intelligence, which makes it a great way to add to any curriculum.

• Signing and speaking are part of linguistic intelligence; learn one word in two ways.
• With logic-mathematical, kids can see how language grows.
• Musical; add signals to songs or rhymes that kids already know.
• Body-kinesthetic: As we sign, kids can feel the words or letters.
• In spatial learning, the child sees the sign take shape.
• Interpersonal; the child signs with a group, a parent, or a teacher.
• Lastly, intrapersonal learning lets the child sign while reading.
