Health Education Quiz - Weather and Clothes - Age 5-7 (Questions)

Protecting ourselves by wearing suitable clothing for different types of weather is one of the topics covered in KS1 PSHE lessons. This quiz, written for children in years 1 and 2, teaches them what clothing or extra items can be used to help stay dry in the wet, warm when it's cold, and cool when it's hot.

The weather can change from one day to the next. More dramatic changes are made from one season to another. It is important that you understand how to dress for the weather. This is in order to keep your body at the right temperature and also to protect yourself from the different types of weather.

If you become too warm or too cold, you may become ill and need to see a doctor. This might also mean you miss out on playing with your friends in the sun or enjoying the snow. Make sure that doesn't happen by learning how to protect yourself from the weather. This quiz will help.
