The lesson
Weather is what the sky and air are like. It can change from morning to night. Sunny, rainy, windy, snowy, cloudy, foggy, and stormy are all weather types.
Today, Mia looks out her window. The sky is gray and full of clouds. Small drops of rain hit the glass. Mia says it is cloudy and rainy today.
If you are not sure, look at the sky first. Check for clouds, rain, snow, or wind before you decide.
Weather changes every day: sunny, rainy, windy, snowy, cloudy, foggy, or stormy.
