Name: _________________ Module: _________________ Date: _________________
Section A: Water Cycle Understanding
The Water Cycle Process:
Label the Water Cycle (8 LUs): Draw simple arrows and label these 4 steps in the water cycle:
Evaporation (water goes up as vapor)
Condensation (vapor becomes clouds)
Precipitation (rain falls down)
Collection (water gathers in rivers/lakes)
Water Cycle Questions (10 LUs):
Where does the water in monsoon clouds come from?
Why doesn't the Earth run out of water?
How does the water cycle bring rain to your village?
What happens to rainwater after it falls on your sports ground?
Connect the water cycle to planning outdoor sports: Why do we need to understand it?
Section B: Weather Basics for League Builders
Understanding Weather Changes:
Air Pressure Basics (8 LUs):
When air pressure goes down, what weather usually comes?
When air pressure goes up, what weather usually comes?
Why do some people feel headaches before storms? (Hint: air pressure changes)
How can understanding air pressure help plan sports matches?
Cloud Types & Weather (8 LUs):
Fluffy white clouds = Good weather for sports
Dark gray clouds = Rain coming soon
Tall dark clouds = Dangerous storms with lightning
Questions: Which cloud type would make you cancel a Kabaddi match? Why? What would you tell the players?
Section C: Maharashtra Weather Geography
Our Local Weather Patterns:
Monsoon Path (8 LUs):
Monsoon winds travel from: Arabian Sea → Mumbai → _____________ → Nagpur
Why does Mumbai get more rain than Nagpur?
Why do monsoons reach Kerala first, then Maharashtra?
How do the Western Ghats mountains affect our rainfall?
Regional Weather Differences (7 LUs):
Coastal areas (like Mumbai): More rain, more humidity
Plateau areas (like your village): Medium rain, good drainage
Mountain areas (like hill stations): Cool, less rain
Questions: Which area would be best for different sports? Why would mountain areas be good for athlete training?
Section D: Weather Tools & Measurement
Weather Instruments:
Match the Tools (6 LUs): Connect each instrument with what it measures:
Thermometer → _______________
Rain gauge → _______________
Wind vane → _______________
Barometer → _______________
Simple Weather Station (6 LUs):
List 3 weather things you would measure daily for your sports ground
Why is each measurement important for sports planning?
How would you make a simple rain gauge using things from your village?
Section E: Weather Safety & Sports Planning
Real League Planning:
Safety First :
At what weather conditions should you stop outdoor sports immediately?
List 3 danger signs of lightning storms
Why is it unsafe to play during heavy rain?
What indoor backup plans would you need?
Smart Planning
Which months in Maharashtra are best for outdoor tournaments? Why?
How would you protect spectators from both sun and rain?
Why do sports grounds need good drainage systems?
League Challenge: You're planning a Kho Kho tournament. The weather forecast shows:
Day 1: Sunny, 28°C
Day 2: Cloudy, 25°C
Day 3: Light rain, 24°C
Which day would you choose for the final match? Give 2 reasons.
