|
Use the Cloud Viewer to explore the clouds and sky outside. What type of clouds do you see? What color is the sky? |
|
An experiment that demonstrates why there are clouds in the sky. Start with air, invisible water vapor, particles we call condensation nuclei, and air pressure...the cloud comes later! |
|
A collection of educational resources to bring cloud science to elementary students. |
|
This Teaching Box combines hands-on activities, data analysis, and discussion that help high school students consider how weather can affect cloud types and how cloud types can affect climate. |
|
In this hands-on activity, students experiment to discover how moisture, pressure, temperature, and condensation nuclei play a role in cloud formation. |
|
In this classroom activity, students investigate how clouds change over time by making repeat observations of a section of sky and then representing their data graphically. |
|
Students review illustrations, maps, cross-sections, and graphs that tell a piece of the story about the effects of clouds on climate. They answer "True and False" questions about each visual and discuss what they take away from the information. |
|
Students use a cloud identification guide to identify clouds in landscape paintings, then make their own art to identify cloud types. |
