Task 4

Materials and tools for a working group:

average temperature diagrams from the selected city/region

The teacher can further explore with pupils how the temperature changes during the year in a particular city in selected region/country (Slovakia). At the beginning, he or she can discuss with pupils how the temperature changes during the year. It asks them which month they think is the hottest; when the temperature is the highest during the year and vice versa, which is the coldest; own experience.

Then they can show them a graph showing the average temperatures during the year in Slovakia, specifically in Bratislava (the teacher can adjust the location according to himself). Also in this role, it focuses primarily on the orientation of the pupils in the graphs, reading the data from the graphs and on the basis of them leading to answering the questions stated in the worksheet.

After studying the graph, the teacher asks them questions (examples of questions are given in the worksheet) focused on the data displayed in the graph. If the pupils have a problem with this step, the teacher will help them with the graph and reading the data from it.

Table B shows the graph of average temperatures during the year in city of Poprad. In this case, pupils will try to answer the questions below the graph again. Subsequently, they compare the average temperatures in Bratislava and Poprad and draw the conclusion.
