An Illustrated Study of Science, Storms & Our Changing Planet
A thoughtful science resource for parents, homeschool families, and educators who want to teach children how our changing planet works.
Why do hurricanes form over warm oceans? What happens inside the eye of a storm? And how can something so powerful begin with something as simple as rising air?
Part of The Restless Earth collection, this beautifully illustrated study introduces young learners to the science of hurricanes through real-world imagery, scientific diagrams, accessible explanations, and hands-on investigations.
Designed to be explored together, each lesson encourages children to observe, ask questions, make predictions, and think like scientists—rather than simply memorize facts.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Illustrated hurricane study
Seven guided science lessons
Teacher and parent discussion prompts
Three hands-on investigation activities
Review questions and suggested answers
Black-and-white printable alternative
MADE FOR GUIDED LEARNING
Whether you're introducing weather science at home, planning a homeschool unit, or enriching a classroom lesson, this study provides the explanations, discussion prompts, and teaching support to help you explore hurricanes with confidence.
No specialized science background is needed. Follow the lessons at your child's pace, encourage curiosity, and let the questions lead the learning.
EXTEND THE INVESTIGATION
Pair this study with The Little Herald: The Hurricane Files, a separate 25-activity workbook featuring weather observations, storm tracking, measurements, forecasting, and critical-thinking challenges.
*This unit study is for Kindergarten through Grade 2, with some flexibility for younger children.
Pre-K / Age 4-5: Suitability — with substantial adult guidance
Kindergarten / Age 5-6: Suitability — excellent for introductory science
Grade 1 / Age 6-7: Suitability — ideal for the full six-unit study
Grade 2 / Age 7-8: Suitability — excellent, especially with deeper discussion
Grade 3 / Age 8-9: Suitability — useful as an introductory review
