Extreme Weather — The Evidence-Based Designer, Grade 6 Stand-alone Project

Extreme Weather is a Grade 6 stand-alone project where learners turn weather evidence into an emergency-response plan that protects people and place. Across five guided lessons from Monday to Friday, learners evaluate weather evidence, work through risk and supply maths, fair-test protective materials, choose and defend the most at-risk location and write an emergency brief. On the required sixth build day, they turn that evidence into a defensible weather-response plan that they design, build, present and explain before completing the closing reflection.

Inside the PPL Learning Portal, learners follow five guided lessons, Monday to Friday, with clear activities, thinking prompts and spaces to record their own ideas. They then complete a required sixth build day, where the week's evidence becomes a finished project that they present and explain, followed by a closing end-of-week reflection. The reflection is part of the Lab, not an optional extra. Their work saves as they go.

After purchase, sign in at https://learn.primaryprojectlabs.co.za using the same email address used at checkout. Parents can view what their learner has written in their own words. The completion certificate is earned once every required section — including the sixth build day and reflection — is complete. We then send a completion email.

This is a structured stand-alone project, not a worksheet bundle, tutoring service or full school replacement. If you would also like a printable or PDF version, please contact Primary Project Labs and ask.

Suitable for families, homeschool settings, tutors, learning support spaces, aftercare programmes and schools.
