Studying Clouds
The Rey Center spent the afternoon with the K-2 students at the Waterville Valley Elementary School studying weather. Since we were unable to venture outdoors due to the single digit temperatures and strong winds, we brought a little bit of the weather indoors. The students learned about different types of clouds and the weather associated with those clouds. After writing about clouds in their journals, it was time for a slightly messier version of cloud studies! Using shaving cream, the students created different types of clouds on the table - thin wispy cirrus clouds, fluffy cumulus clouds, and a blanket-like stratus clouds. Not only did they have a great time playing with the shaving cream, their project left the table sparkling clean too!
