Year 3 – Weather Comparisons

This week the Year 3 and Year 3/4 classes looked at the differences in weather in Germany and Australia. In small groups students needed to use a device to research the weather in Adelaide over a 5 day period. They then chose a city in Germany and did the same.

With their data, the students then created a graph comparing the top temperatures in each city. We found that the German city always had the higher temperature, due to it being summer over there at the moment.

We then discussed how different this graph may look if we did the same task in February. We concluded that a February graph would show a much larger temperature difference as we have very hot summers and Germany has very cold winters!
