Here is what teachers like you had to say:
★★★★★ My students were blown away by how Hurricanes are named. That was one of the best things about this resource. Also the diagrams and charts were great!
★★★★ I used a part of this product to coincide with a Florida unit we've been doing. Next year, I intend on fully utilizing it! They loved learning about the degrees and classification of hurricanes.
★★★★★ Such a great resource for my natural disasters unit. I try to do many things online, but it is nice to have print copies as well.
★★★★★ Great for struggling readers. Content without difficult language.
★★★★★ Worked very well with the unit about extreme weather. Students were engaged and asked a lot of questions.
For your convenience, these hurricanes worksheets come in both TPT digital EASEL and printable PDF resource formats.

These hurricanes worksheets are closely aligned with the following Common Core reading standards:
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.4.1
Refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.4.2
Determine the main idea of a text and explain how it is supported by key details; summarize the text.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.4.3
Explain events, procedures, ideas, or concepts in a historical, scientific, or technical text, including what happened and why, based on specific information in the text.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.4.7
Interpret information presented visually, orally, or quantitatively (e.g., in charts, graphs, diagrams, timelines, animations, or interactive elements on Web pages) and explain how the information contributes to an understanding of the text in which it appears.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.5.1
Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.5.2
Determine two or more main ideas of a text and explain how they are supported by key details; summarize the text.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.5.3
Explain the relationships or interactions between two or more individuals, events, ideas, or concepts in a historical, scientific, or technical text based on specific information in the text.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.5.4
Determine the meaning of general academic and domain-specific words and phrases in a text relevant to a grade 5 topic or subject area.
They are also closely aligned with the following science standards from National Science Teaching Association Standard and Next Generation Science Standards:
HS-ESS2-2 Analyze geoscience data to make the claim that one change to Earth's surface can create feedbacks that cause changes to other Earth systems.
MS-ESS3-2 Analyze and interpret data on natural hazards to forecast future catastrophic events and inform the development of technologies to mitigate their effects.
MS-ESS2-6 Develop and use a model to describe how unequal heating and rotation of the Earth cause patterns of atmospheric and oceanic circulation that determine regional climates.
NEXT GENERATION SCIENCE STANDARDS:
MS-ESS3-2 Analyze and interpret data on natural hazards to forecast future catastrophic events and inform the development of technologies to mitigate their efforts.
MS-ESS2.D MS-ESS2-6 Weather and climate are influenced by interactions involving sunlight, the ocean, the atmosphere, ice, landforms, and living things. These interactions vary with latitude, altitude, and local and regional geography, all of which can affect oceanic and atmospheric flow patterns.
MS-ESS2-5 Because these patterns are so complex, weather can only be predicted probabilistically.
MS-ESS2-6 The ocean exerts a major influence on weather and climate by absorbing energy from the sun, releasing it over time, and globally redistributing it through ocean currents.
