CLOUDS

Transform your classroom into a fully functioning weather station with this series of hands-on investigations. Covering the topics of temperature, precipitation, wind patterns, and cloud formation, these activities engage young...

Exactly what do groundhogs know about weather? Not as much as your science students will after completing these lessons and activities that cover everything from the earth's rotation and the creation of shadows, to cloud...

Over a span of two weeks or more, mini meteorologists record weather-related measurements. What makes this particular resource different from others covering similar activities are the thorough details for the teacher and printables for...

Weathering is not necessarily a result of the weather. Scholars conduct an experiment to explore the effect of surface area and volume on the weathering process. They create their own sugar cube rocks using the same number of cubes—but...

Learners explore the formation of clouds and different cloud types. Students simulate a cloud formation within a bottle.

Students observe landscape paintings consisting of cloud formations. In this identifying cloud types lesson plan, students discover different cloud types and characteristics by looking at paintings. Students paint their own pictures at...

Students investigate the water cycle and cloud formations by examining photographs.  In this weather activity, students observe pictures of specific cloud types and identify them by putting them in groups.  Students describe...

Students study weather and focus on specific dance concepts. They are introduced to different ty es of clouds and how they are formed. Next, they study wind and why it occurs.

Young scholars analyze how clouds form. In this cloud formation lesson, students brainstorm types of clouds and what they think they're made of. Young scholars conduct an experiment to see how clouds form and discuss their observations....

Perhaps one day humans will learn to control the weather. Future scientists simulate clouds and fog in a plastic bottle. They conduct an experiment where they place smoke and hot water in the bottle, then squeeze and release repeatedly....
