Cloud Center

 

This center will help students to determine the difference between cumulus, stratus, and cirrus clouds.  The items that will be needed are:

 

Shaving Cream

 

To do this activity, have the students clear their desks of everything and then go around and spray a pile of shaving cream onto their desk.  Then go up to the front of the class and have them make a stratus cloud with their shaving cream.  After that, have them make a cumulus cloud and then a cirrus cloud.  The students will really enjoy the new activity and they will learn as well.
