Inflatable Weather Set
Explore the wonderful world of weather. Introduce the different types of weather we experience. The inflatable weather set includes a sun, snowflake, rain, lightning bolt, and a cloud. The inflatable weather set was designed to represent the most popular weather symbols studied in the elementary classrooms.
Use the inflatable weather set to create the perfect classroom atmosphere for your teaching unit, or use them as interactive models that students can touch and investigate.
Explore and compare how the weather symbols are similar and different. Use the facts listed to discuss the uniqueness of each symbol. These are great to use when discussing the daily weather.
Inflation Instructions
1.The inflatable pieces must reach room temperature before they are inflated to reduce temperature shock that can cause defects.
2.For best results, inflate by blowing into the valve with your mouth only.
3.Do not overinflate. Do not attempt to remove every wrinkle from the pieces.
4.Where there are multiple sections, inflate slowly, allowing air to seep into the smaller sections.
5.After inflating, cover the valve opening with your finger. Pinch the valve at its base with your fingers and insert the plug into the valve opening. Quickly insert the plug fully into the valve opening until the head of the plug touches the opening. Press the valve into the piece until the valve is flush with the surface of the object.
CAUTION: Do not inflate with an air compressor or any other high pressure hose. Do not pull on valves.
THIS IS NOT A LIFESAVING DEVICE.
Maintenance and Deflation
1.Do not drag pieces over sharp objects or surfaces.
2.Avoid contact with hot or sharp objects.
3.To clean, rinse with lukewarm water and let air dry.
