Focused on weather tools and patterns, this medium worksheet challenges second graders with nine fill-in-the-blank sentences about thermometers, rain gauges, and windsocks. Students then complete a matching task pairing four instruments, including a barometer, with what they measure: temperature, rainfall, wind direction, and air pressure.
It introduces real scientific vocabulary and helps children think like meteorologists, building the tool-recognition skills they will use in later elementary science units.
Style:
Weather and Seasons
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. A thermometer measures how hot or cold it is, called the temperature.
2. A rain gauge measures how much rain has fallen.
3. A windsock shows which direction the wind is blowing.
4. Clouds that are dark and heavy usually bring rain.
5. A weather forecast tells us what the weather will be like.
6. White and fluffy clouds on a sunny day are called cumulus clouds.
7. A barometer is a tool that measures air pressure.
8. When the sun heats water, it turns into vapor and rises.
9. Weather changes from day to day because of moving air.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.

Air pressure
Rain gauge
→ Rainfall amount
