Wild and Wacky Winter

Grades 3-6

Perf time: 35-40 minutes

For some unaccountable reason, winter weather systems have been behaving in a wild and wacky manner. It has become hot where it has been usually cold and wet in locations that are usually dry. These unexplainable weather systems have caused the staff of the weather channel to go into a tailspin. They are ata loss to explain these changes that have Alaskans boogie boarding and Jamaicans freezing in their tracks.
Failing to provide an explanation, the meteorologist and broadcasters concoct a plot to blame the problems on El Nino and La Nina. Much to their surprise, these tow weather systems “storm” the broadcast studio and defend themselves against these erroneous charges.
When it appears that there is no explanation for these strange weather conditions, an unknown weather system named “El Meano” explains that our failure to take good care of the earth has “precipitated” his appearance. When confronted with his wayward behavior, El Meano promises to abandon his meteorological misdeeds if all pledge to work toward the establishment of practices that promote conservation and environmental awareness.
This comical look at our weather systems teaches us all an important lesson about ecology and preserving this great planet that we live on.
