Clouds, Winds, and Weather
Learners observe, record, and report weather conditions to learn how air mass densities determine the weather we experience daily. They demonstrate how clouds form, name clouds and predict the weather.

Weather or Not (Cloud Formation/Condensation)
Students investigate the formation of clouds and rain in this experiment. They decide how dust in the air helps to make clouds form and how dust helps meteorologists make forecasts.
Curated OER
Structure of the Earth
Seventh graders study the cause of climate change, and how clouds form and affect weather. They define condensation and precipitation, the greenhouse effect and the water cycle.

How Do Clouds Form?
Students describe how they believe clouds form. They observe the different types of clouds they see and identify the types. They examine what affects the size and shape of clouds.
Curated OER
Classification of Clouds
Students view progressive slides of cloud formations and identify which type of cloud is shown as it forms. They estimate the cloud's height while viewing each image.
