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?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIZvHkqTOV4 Extension based on what
you found out last lesson, why do you think the weather is so very
different?
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

And how does this affect the temperatures in the rest of the
world?Why does the British Isles have unpredictable weather?WALT

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?

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?
