Answer:
Hold up a cotton ball and describe it as fluffy and soft. Ask students to respond with a thumbs up or down to indicate their response to the question: Are clouds fluffy and soft, too?
Explain that though they may look fluffy and soft, clouds are actually made of teeny tiny drops of water that are so small they can float in the air. As long as the cloud and the air that it's made of are warmer than the air around it, it floats.
Stretch another cotton ball into an elongated shape and add that clouds have different shapes and sometimes colors. The shapes and colors can help us predict the weather.
Pick up another cotton ball and hold it up high, then towards your middle, then to your shoes as you explain the high cloud group as cirrus the middle cloud group as alto and the low clouds group as stratus.
Announce that we will learn to be cloud scientists today as we learn how to identify and even create our own clouds.
