Hello third grade students and parents! Today we had a very successful lesson on cloud types. The students were introduced to three different cloud types: Cumulus, Cirrus, and Stratus. We enjoyed the story The Cloud Book by Tomie de Paola. The story introduced different cloud types and "stories" about clouds. After the story, we viewed pictures of the three different cloud types on Flickr. I was impressed on the students ability to identify the cloud types on the mini check. We then enjoyed creating the three cloud types by using a pencil and cotton balls. The pictures turned out great. At the end of the lesson, we entered our new weather information into our journals.
