I use them in the school presentations with weather and graphics that illustrate the song. It s sort of like a live music video and goes over well with the elementary school kids. Weather Dude also features several links, including a special section of Stuff for Kids and weather questions and quizzes. It s a valuable resource for teachers, providing numerous links and books that are useful for teaching weather. I want teachers to access it even teachers who know nothing about weather, Walker said.
