Cloud science

Hello Everyone! What a great day to start a study on clouds!! Dark clouds this morning releasing a deluge of rain! By 1:00 beautiful clear sky with just a few cirrus clouds! Perfect example of our ever changing skies. I'll share our Cloud Unit in a second, but first I wanted to show some pics of our whole group math lesson. We are continuing our study of place value. After all the activities we did last week, it was time to see how all of this fits in relationship to other numbers. I pulled…

Clouds are castles in the sky. They form between 6,500 feet and 16,500 feet. Learn how to identify the ten officially recognized types of clouds.

This New Rain Cloud in a Jar Experiment is super fun. It is a great way to teach kids about rain, liquid densities, and the water cycle.

Clouds are water droplets or ice crystals that have formed on tiny bits of dust and dirt in the air. When we look up into the sky, we can see many different types of clouds.

Simple kitchen science experiment how to make a cloud in a jar. This is a great experiment to try with the preschool age group.

We are sharing tips on how parents can best help their kids with school projects. See how we helped ours with the Kids Cloud Science Project.

Fun and easy science activity making a rain cloud in a jar. All the you need is an empty jar, shaving foam and food colouring.

Illustration of the various cloud types and the altitudes at which they form. The lowest cloud formations lie below 2km.

1st and 2nd grade students create a flip book to learn the different types of clouds, where they form in the sky, and what kind of weather it will bring.

Make Cloud Warm moist air was trapped in the jar when you poured hot water into it. The hot air rose unless it came in contact with the cool lid. The cloud formed inside the jar due to the circulation of warm air rising and cold air sinking! Try the natural phenomenon science activity at home and have fun!

Shaving Cream Rain Cloud Science Experiment. Using a glass, shaving cream, water and food coloring you can explore how rain clouds work!

Clouds are one of nature's most consistently visible wonders and can also tell us a lot about what is going on up in the atmosphere.
