      2.2.3 Chart or graph weather observations such as cloud cover, cloud type and type of precipitation on a daily basis over a period of weeks. 2.NS.3 Generate questions and make observations about natural processes. Students who are having a hard time getting a handle on the concepts presented in this lesson could be given additional time.  Really, any adaptation you make to this activity for slower learners would be a good thing for all students, so additional pictures and resources should be shared with all students.  Time is the only thing I could think of that could become an issue for students, so slower students could be given more time and one-on-one teacher help for this activity.

    This activity uses "the cloud book" by Tomie DePaola to introduce the different types of clouds to students.  As an add on, the teacher could pull up photos of the different cloud types on the computer and show them on the overhead for students.  They should also discuss the purpose of these clouds and why there are different types.  I chose this lesson because it allows students to do a hands-on activity where they make pictures of clouds using cotton balls. This is not your average note-taking, textbook reading science lesson.

    Clouds and weather are usually classified under Earth Science and you cited an Earth Science standard, so you should probably tag it as such.

      The Nature of Science 2.1  Use a scientific notebook to record predictions, questions and observations about data with pictures, numbers or in words. SCI.2.2.2 2010 Experience and describe wind as the motion of the air. SCI.2.2.3 2010 Chart or graph weather observations such as cloud cover, cloud type and type of precipitation on a daily basis over a period of weeks. ADAPTATION: Low Ability and/or ELL students can draw pictures in place of written observations.  EXTENSION:  Students can my a pictograph of common trends they observed during their observation
