Young scholars look at how clouds form. For this cloud lesson, students make a cloud using water,  2 liter bottles and a match. They watch how the pressure and temperature changes the atmosphere in the bottle to create a cloud. 

Young scholars investigate cloud formation. For this weather lesson, students examine how clouds are formed. Young scholars participate in experiments that model how water vapor in the air works.

Students describe how they believe clouds form. They observe the different types of clouds they see and identify the types. They examine what affects the size and shape of clouds.

After reading, It Looked Like Spilt Milk, by Charles G. Shaw, primary students will participate in a multimedia approach for a hands-on science instructional activity which develops an awareness of weather, clouds, and the sky above....

Students examine clouds. In this technology skill lesson, students identify different cloud types, observe and photograph clouds in nature, and print and write a riddle about the objects they see in the clouds.
