How about in group 2?

Very good, you are all present today.

2. Review
Let me see if you still remember our lesson
yesterday.

What was our topic yesterday? Our lesson yesterday is all about water cycle

Very Good!

I have here a picture of stages of water cycle
and all you need to do is label and paste it on
the picture.

4. Motivation

Class, Today we are going to have a Magic

Show. I have here a magic box and a magic
one. Inside of this box, there are objects that
you’re going to identify what weather they
will use.

Are you ready class? Alright! Let’s start.

Raincoat- For Rainy

Coffee- For Rainy
Jacket- For Rainy
Cold Water- For Sunny
Sunglass- For Sunny
Hand fan- Sunny
Umbrella- For Rainy/ Sunny

First object is sun glass etc.

This object is related in our topic today

because if you feel you’re eyes get hurt in the
sun. You’re going to use a sunglass to protect
your eyes.

B. Lesson Proper

1. Presentation of the Lesson

Today, we are going to discuss the weather

instruments

2. Discussion

So, Let’s define first weather

What is weather class?

Will you please read Ivan? Weather it refers to the condition of the
Atmosphere of a place in a short period of
time.

Very Good, Ivan!

So, weather describes as the degree to which

it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy,
clear or cloudy.

And that is the weather in the atmosphere.

Do you know class who is Kuya Kim?

Yes, Ma’am. He is as the news forecaster for
weather.
Very Good Class,

Kuya Kim are well-known as Meteorologists

in the Philippines.

Now, Let’s Proceed to our new lesson for

today that is weather instruments.

What is the weather instrument? Weather Instrument are the tools or equipment
Yes, can you please read, Ina? that is used to measure weather.

Good Job Ina,

So, weather instruments are the tools or

equipment that is used to measure weather.
And track data from weather patterns
overtime.
So we have here the different kinds of
weather instruments. Thermometer, Wind
vane, Anemometer, Rain gauge, Barometer,
Wind sock.

What is the use of

Thermometer?

Yes, Jennefer? Can you Thermometer is used to measure air

please read.
temperature.
Ok that is thermometer. So when we say
temperature it is the hotness and coldness of
air.

3|Page
As you can see the red line in the middle that
is called mercury. If the temperature is hot the
red line is rising and if the temperature is low
the red line is going down.

Next instrument is wind vane, can you please

read what is wind vane Jerick? Jerick: Wind vane is a device that tells the
direction

Ok. Thank you Wind

vane is a device that
tells the direction of
the wind.

Now, how about wind direction?

Wind direction is the direction from which

the wind is blowing.

The next one is Barometer, what is

Barometer?

Eunice, can you please Eunice: Barometer is an instrument which

read what barometer is? measures atmospheric pressure.

When we say
atmospheric pressure it is a
weight of air in our atmosphere.

What is Rain gauge?

Rain gauge it is used to measure the amount

of rainfall, it also measures all other forms of
precipitation.

Will you please read, Jomel: Rain gauge it is used to measure the
Jomel! amount of rainfall, it also measures all other
forms of precipitation.

Very Good!

Rain gauge is used to measure the amount of

rainfall in millimeters. When we say
precipitation it is the amount of rainfall.

Next instrument is Wind sock

4|Page
Can you please what
is wind sock, Randolp: Wind sock is an instrument that can
Randolp? show both the wind speed and direction

Brilliant!

So as you can see the sock rotates on a pole

and shows the direction of wind. If the sock is
blowing straight out, it shows that the wind is
strong.

If the sock is limp, it means there is a very

light wind.

Anemometer is used to
find out how fast the
wind is blowing

Lany: Anemometer is used to find out how fast

Can you please read Lany what is the wind is blowing
Anemometer?

Very Good!

When the wind blows fast, it makes the cups

to spin around faster, and the dial shows the
actual speed of wind.

So those are some of the weather instrument.

3. Application

Group Activity:

Direction: Inside the envelope there is a

pictures of weather instruments. Each group
need to arrange and label the weather
instruments.

4. Generalization

What is the weather instruments we can use Thermometer

to determine the hot and coldness of the air?

What is the weather instruments we can use

to determine the wind speed? Anemometer
