Weather and Sky Vocabulary Worksheets for 2nd Grade

What your child practices

This 2nd grade vocabulary set (Grade 2 in Canada) teaches the Weather and Sky word list through 4 worksheets and 32 questions. Young children learn new words fastest when they meet them again and again in different ways, which is why each sheet uses the same words in a new kind of task. The sheets cover Match the Meaning, Fill in the Sentence, Synonyms and Antonyms and Which Word Fits. Each sheet supports Common Core L.2.4, covering working out the meaning of unknown words. It also touches L.2.6, learning and using new grade level words. Each PDF includes its own answer key on page 2, ready for you or your child to check. After printing, the online version gives instant feedback and reads each question aloud.

Tips for parents

• Act out words when you can. Young learners remember a word they have moved to.
• Pick three words from the Weather and Sky list and use them in conversation during the week.
• Cover the definitions and quiz your child, then swap roles so they quiz you.
