Learning About Severe Weather
Coloring these pages is a practical way to introduce kids to meteorology and atmospheric science. When working on the storm chaser sheets, you can discuss how scientists use radar dishes and anemometers to measure wind speed and track a supercell.
Talk about the difference between a regular rain shower and a severe natural disaster while coloring the heavy rain and lightning scenes. This helps children understand the power of nature and the importance of weather safety.
Coloring Dramatic Skies
Weather scenes offer a wonderful chance to practice shading and contrast. For a realistic thunderhead, use varying shades of charcoal, deep blues, and even hints of purple to show the dense concentration of water droplets. The contrast between the bright strikes and the heavy clouds makes the image dynamic.
- Leave the lightning bolts stark white or add a faint yellow glow around the edges to make them pop against a dark sky.
- Use horizontal strokes for heavy rain and angled lines to show the direction of a strong gale hitting the trees.
- Blend pale blues and cool grays for the winter snowstorms to create a freezing, low-visibility atmosphere.
Using These Pages at Home and School
Teachers can incorporate the weather radar and rain gauge pictures into earth science units. Parents might find the scenes of the sailboat on stormy waves or the cozy log cabin helpful for quiet time during an actual thunderstorm.
The simple cloud faces work well for preschoolers learning about basic weather patterns, while the highly detailed tornado scenes and research vehicles will keep older children and adult colorists engaged.
