Weather teaching resources are freely shared by MetLink (The Royal Meteorological, Society). It is necessary to filter the resources as everything that shows upon opening Teaching Resources page is for secondary schools. However, setting filters of “weather” and “Primary” gives a large selection to have a look at. There are several that are for all ages but these filtered resources are marked specifically for the primary age range:
- Science of Weather – Ben Nevis Weather – Primary

There are lots more weather teaching resources titles such as: Drought, Thunder and Lightning, Climate Zones etc; however, they are for all ages but may be worth exploring for ideas, or information, if you need them. Along with the resources, all of these titles have teacher’s notes, if any are needed – some are simply information. If worksheets or presentations are needed. then they are freely downloadable.
