to look outside today look outside our window and we have to determine what the weather is today what is the weather like where you live if you look out your window can you see what the weather looks like what does it look like if you use those looking eyes what does the weather look like does it look like it's a sunny day does it look like it's raining does it look like it's snowing outside or does it look like it's cloudy outside what does the weather look like just by looking with your eyes if I look with my eyes out of my window where I live the weather is sunny it's a sunny day but I also know because I went outside that it is very very cold today it's a very very cold day the sun is shining but it's cold so let me see if I have a picture that can help us describe what the weather looks like and feels like the weather is let me get my pictures here's my little bag with all my weather pictures so I'm going to open up my little bag with all my weather pictures and let's see which picture describes the weather today now remember where I live where I live the weather looks sunny really sunny the sun is shining bright but it's very cold outside so let's see if we can find a Sun picture does this look like a Sun picture nah this is cloudy how about let's see this one oh this picture is a picture of wind for windy but it's not windy out I see a lot of Sun it's really really sunny how about this picture what do you think oh no this is a picture of rain it's not raining out not today today is sunny so let me see if I can find it I think I may have found one how about this picture yes this is a picture of the Sun and since it looks sunny out the weather is sunny we're going to put a picture of the Sun now let's read this together first I will read it then we'll read it together okay the weather oh let me move it down a little can you see that the weather is sunny the weather is sunny can you read it now with me let's do it together the weather is sunny the weather is sunny out and my friend mr. weather bear this is mr. weather bear he is not wearing any clothing yet and he needs us to help him get dressed for the day and it's sunny out we know it looks sunny and I also told you that it feels cold it's sunny and it feels cold so what can we dress mr. weather bear in I have a bag with mr. weather bears clothes in it now remember we said it looks sunny out but it feels really really cold so let's see what we should put on mr. weather bears feet it's sunny and cold should we put on rain boots or should we just put sneakers it's not raining out it's sunny and cold do you think mr. weather bear should wear rain boots or sneakers hmm if you said sneakers I think I agree with you we can put sneakers on mr. weather bear let's put on his sneakers all right mr. weather bear there go your sneakers now mr. weather bear has to wear some pants outside I'm wearing jeans today and I have some jeans for mr. weather bear so let's put some jeans on mr. weather bear because he can't wear shorts outside right it's too cold for shorts so we're gonna put jeans on mr. weather bear now we said it was cold outside so should we put on a light light jacket or should we put on a coat with a scarf for mr. weather bear if it's cold outside do you think he needs a light jacket or a coat with a scarf if you said a coat with a scarf I think I will agree let's put on the coat with the scarf okay mr. weather bear we're going to put on your coat and scarf so he can stay nice and warm outside because it's cold outside and since it's cold maybe we should put something on his head that's right on his head what should we put on his head you tell me what should we put on his head should we put an umbrella on his head nah we don't need an umbrella it's not raining should we put a I don't know should we put sunglasses on his head well it is a little sunny out but what will keep his head warm will the sunglasses keep his head warm no but I have an idea hmm maybe a hat what do you think should we put a hat on his head I have a little hat for mr. weather bear a winter hat with a pom-pom on top do you agree good let's put on his hat oh mr. weather bear that's a small hat we're gonna have to hit a bigger hat for mr. weather bear but for now I think that'll work maybe we can make a hat for mr. weather bear that will cover his ears too what do you think you think we should make a new hat for him I agree I think we should make a new hat for mr. weather bear but for now that's okay so he's wearing a hat scarf a coat some jeans and some sneakers I think he'll be nice and warm and ready to go outside remember the weather looks sunny but it also feels cold so I think mr. weather bear is ready to go you think so I agree now the last thing I want to go
