Weather in the Classroom | CTV Calgary
CTV’s Weather in the Classroom is back September 2024 and we are so excited to be a part of your weather program!
Due to the volume of requests during the last school year, we have adjusted the sign-up process to make it a little easier. Please go over our options below before picking your booking date.
Learning Options
1. Weather in the Classroom experience in the CTV studio
Previously, as part of a pilot project, we offered a Weather in the Classroom experience in the CTV studio. After so many rave reviews, we are excited to be able to offer this for the 2024/2025 school year. This field trip begins with a 40-minute weather lesson provided by our CTV weather team. Then the students get to try out their skills on the green screen in the CTV weather studio and this includes a visit to the Virgin 98.5 radio studio.
Field trip timing:
- 12:15 Arrival and getting settled in the learning room
- 12:20-1:00 Weather class
- 1:00-2:00 Students use the green screen and visit radio
- 2:00 Class photo (with students who have media release approvals) *The only cost to the school is arranging their own field trip transportation to and from CTV studios. Parent volunteers are also welcome to attend! There is a maximum of 75 students for this adventure.
Dates available for the Weather in the Studio option are:
October 9: 12:15pm - 2:00pm
October 17: 12:15pm - 2:00pm
November 6: 12:15pm - 2:00pm
November 14: 12:15pm - 2:00pm
2. Weather in the Classroom (in-person option)
This is a one-hour weather class provided by one of our Weather Anchors in your classroom. Typically, this program runs a little longer than the set hour (grade fives have so many great questions), so it’s often best to plan for a 90 minute visit.
Dates available for Weather in the Classroom (in-person option) are:
September 25: 1:00pm - 2:00pm
September 26: 10:30am - noon
October 3: 1:00pm - 2:30pm
October 17: 10:30am - noon
November 7: 10:30am - noon
November 20: 1:00pm - 2:30pm
November 28: 10:30am - noon
December 4: 1:00pm - 2:30pm
December 12: 10:30am - noon
3. Weather in the Classroom (online option)
This is a one-hour weather class provided by one of our Weather Anchors virtually (this experience is available through Teams or Zoom). Once you have booked a date, a member of our weather team will contact you to schedule a tech test prior to your presentation.
Dates avaiable for Weather in the Classroom (online option) are:
October 9: 10:15am - 11:15am
October 17: 10:15am - 11:15am
November 6: 10:15am - 11:15am
November 14:10:15am - 11:15am
Additional Weather in the Classroom dates will be posted in January 2025 (for the January to May time period)
