Description
Weather literacy is highly important and closely intertwined with everyday life. Our knowledge regarding the weather comprehension of third-graders and their ability to interpret weather patterns still needs to be improved. The findings of this study revealed that students better understand precipitation and temperature yet need to show greater comprehension of cloud cover and wind patterns. Furthermore, interpreting combinations of weather elements and phenomena proved more challenging. The implications of these findings prompt considerations on how weather literacy is cultivated within school curricula, strategies for managing hazardous weather situations, assessing the weather's impact on students to mitigate potential risks.
