On the journey she faces all kinds of climatic obstacles -- threatening clouds, competing air masses, the Wind sisters, and a shower of cats and dogs. With the help of Ralph the Weather Dog and a groundhog who loves tongue twisters, she learns the significance of the water cycle, how weather makes the earth habitable, and how the elements of weather are all connected. 20 minutes; grades 1-4. /// WHAT IT DOES: "The Weather Show" is a great complement to your curriculum resources in the atmospheric sciences. And, like all Bad Wolf Press plays, this show can be used to improve reading comprehension, vocabulary, performance and speaking skills, class camaraderie and teamwork, and school engagement and parental involvement -- all while enabling students to be part of a truly fun and creative experience they will never forget!
