PowerPoint Presentation

Climate in the UKStarter watch the video clip and write down the differences in the weather experienced in the two clips?WALT explore the climate of the UKWILFLevel 4 to be able to describe the different conditionsLevel 5 to be able to explain the difference in temperature in the UKLevel 6 to analyse why the climate of the UK is temperateLevel 7 to evaluate the extent to which climate is influenced by factors beyond the UK

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

Isotherms are lines joining areas of equal temperature.Iso means the same.July temperatures

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

As you can see the temperature can vary from place to place in the UK

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

What is the temperature in:A London?B The far North of Scotland?

What is the temperature range?

Extension Why is there a range of temperatures?

ABWhy is it warmer in the South than the North in Summer?Therefore, the suns rays are more concentrated in the South rather than the North of Britain.

Why is the South of Britain warmer than the North?

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

And how does this affect the temperatures in the rest of the world?Why does the British Isles have unpredictable weather?WALT explore the climate of the UKWILFLevel 4 to be able to describe the different conditionsLevel 5 to be able to explain the difference in temperature in the UKLevel 6 to analyse why the climate of the UK is temperateLevel 7 to evaluate the extent to which climate is influenced by factors beyond the UK

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

Describe and explain the pattern of heating around the world.

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

What is the temperature in: C- Maidstone?D Cornwall?

What is the range of temperatures?

Extension Why is there a difference in temperaturesCDSo why is it warmer in the West than the East in the winter?The North Atlantic Drift is a warm ocean current that brings higher temperatures to the west of the UK. The North Atlantic Drift starts its journey in the Gulf of Mexico.

Why is it warmer in the West in January?

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

Other ocean currents affect different places in the world too.The British Isles has a temperate climate. This means that it is not too hot, not too cold, not too dry and not too wet!

The British Climate

Describe the pattern of rainfall in the UK.Why is there more rainfall in the West of the British Isles?

Rainfall in the British Isles

Many of the mountain ranges in the British Isles occur in the West.

The West is therefore more likely to experience relief rainfall.Why is there more rainfall in the West?

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

10Relief rainfall is explained in the presentation Weather an introduction.

The prevailing wind comes from the SW. This wind blows over the Atlantic, bringing moisture-laden air.The prevailing wind is the most common direction of wind. Why is there more rainfall in the West?

Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

This is a wet day in February. Explain the following

1) why C is warmer than B.2) why it is raining at D.3) why A is colder than B.Can you explain?

Task UK seasonsYou must produce a powerpoint or poster on the weather in the UKYou must include information about the temperature and rainfall in different parts of the UK in each seasonWhy do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

WALT explore the climate of the UKLevel 4Level 5Level 6Level 7You have described the temperature and rainfall in all the seasons in the UKYou have explained how and why temperature and rainfall vary in different parts of the UK in each seasonYou have analysed why the seasons vary around the UK in terms of temperature and rainfallYou have evaluated the extent to which different factors affect the seasons in the UKReflectionWhich season is being shown in the following images?Why do other places in the world have different weather and climate to the UK?

WALT explore the climate of the UK

Extension Explain why you chose those seasons? What evidence is there in the images?
