  2. What are clouds made of? • Six friends were looking at large, white, puffy clouds in the sky. This is what they said: Trista – “I think clouds are made of large drops of water.” Lee – “I think clouds are made of soft, cotton like material.” Manny – “I think clouds are made of smoke that rises from the land.” Rosie – “I think clouds are made of evaporated water in the form of a gas.” Glenda – “I think clouds are made of tiny drops of water or tiny ice crystals.” Leticia – “I think clouds are made of spongy material that holds water in it.” Which friend do you most agree with? Explain why

  3. Rainfall • A group of friends was looking up at a rain cloud. Each had a different idea about how rain falls from the clouds. This is what they said: Will – “I think rain falls when clouds melt.” Chandra – “I think rain falls when the clouds open up.” Bettina – “I think rain falls when the clouds get too cold.” Fern – “I think rain falls when clouds are shaken or pushed together.” Lorna – “I think rain falls when the evaporated water in clouds condenses.” Marcus – “I think rain falls when water drops in the clouds get too heavy.” Jonah – “I think rain falls as the ice crystals in the clouds begin to melt.” Nona – “I think rain falls when water falls through little holes in the clouds.” Which friend do you most agree with? Explain your answer.
