Game: Cloud Concentration URL: http://eo.ucar.edu/webweather/concentration/concen2.html Age Level: Elementary on up. What it does: Resembles the "Concentration" memory game. Match 2 pictures of the same type of cloud, as each pair is matched the squares disappear to reveal a picture of a sunset landscape thru picturesque clouds. Observations: Small game, does only one thing. The benefit is that it necessarily exposes the learner to cloud images and names repeatedly - the repetition will help with memorizing the long cloud names (like "cumulonimbus", 5 syllables, maybe a long word for an elementary school kid.) I found this one on http://classroom.jc-schools.net/basic/sciweather.html . a collection of weather resources for science teachers. Up/Down: Up.
