In this course, Students will make their own cloud in a jar while they learn about how clouds are formed and how to determine the various cloud types. Students will come to understand the difference between cumulus, stratus, and cirrus clouds. Students will further investigate the role of altitude on clouds to understand the variations of clouds that include altostratus, altocumulus , cirrostratus, and cirrocumulus, clouds. Finally, the role of rain and moisture will be discussed in relation to cloud formation so students will understand the difference between nimbostratus, cumulonimbus, stratocumulus clouds.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their understanding of clouds and cloud formations and have fun making their own cloud.Other Details

My teaching philosophy is to do whatever it takes to help your child learn. I like to build on your child’s background knowledge and interests to get them excited about topics.
