What are some fun activities that can be done with a lesson ob weather and climate?

Dear Priscilla, Fun activities related to weather and climate can be found on these NASA websites: https://climatekids.nasa.gov/ The GLOBE Observer program lets students take pictures of clouds, measure tree height, study mosquito habitats, and study land cover, here: https://observer.globe.gov/ Here's how NASA studies Earth: https://science.nasa.gov/earth-science/ For desktop and laptop computers, NASA's Eyes on the Earth shows the Earth-orbiting satellites that are studying sea level elevation, CO2 in the atmosphere, and more: https://eyes.jpl.nasa.gov/eyes-on-the-earth.html For cell phones or iPads, the "Earth Now" app shows the same datasets that Eyes on the Earth does. A "NASA's Eyes on Extreme Weather" article can be found here: https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/edu/news/2019/10/18/nasas-eyes-on-extreme-weather/ NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has many classroom activities available, and you can search by topic and grade level, here: https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/edu/teach/ I hope this helps!
