Science
 |
| Cloud in a bottle - no matches needed. Warm water and an ice cube. |
Mister and Ladybug were very interested in how the clouds were formed especially the part about the sun evaporating the water, so we did our own evaporation. They were curious to see if we could make a cloud.
 |
| We made a few observations and added to our predictions. |
 |
| We poured water on the deck and made predictions about what would happen. |
 |
| Using the pictures of cirrus, stratus, and cumulus clouds they made their own cloud books and put on the correct lable for the cloud type. |

ReplyDeleteThanks Amanda! I could tell they were burned out on clouds by the end of the week because there was little interest in the cloud in the bottle.
ReplyDeleteWe also made cloud cookies http://joythebaker.com/2009/05/lemon-cloud-tea-cookies/ which weren't my favorite, but a cookie is a cookie to the kiddos.
