weather show all posts saturday may 15 2010 cloud study week 2 the second week s activity was for the students to research and create a cloud classification system it was meant to be done as a problem based learning exercise but our kids did not do well with this approach at all the difficulty was that none of them were adept at extracting information from their book sources so that only led to confusion when trying to pull things together as a group ultimately i gave them each books to take home so that next week they could all bring back information they learn i have been looking for online resources for the kids to look at too one of the best sites i have found is windows to the universe which has a wealth of information for all fields of science their teacher resource section for atmosphere and weather has several activities relating to clouds it also has this nifty cloud viewer to print and use for classification we have decided to continue our co op until the end of june so i can find some extension activities here if we finish the nasa packet the student page about clouds has a lot of great information for the kids to read another site i got from library of books links and more crazy about clouds was noaa s jetstream online school for weather section about clouds they have two interactive cloud charts main page and classification page a pdf cloud observation log and a cloud identification wheel to cut out and use finally i found a neat article about luke howard the man who named the clouds it s from the weather notebook a great resource from the mt washington observatory that is still available though stopped posting new material in 2005 a site a just recently came across is nasa virtual skies this has all things aviation from math to physics to weather to technology it includes teacher resources as well i found great information on clouds including a chart of cloud map symbols hopefully the kids will do a little better with the group dynamics once they all have some information under their belts i am going to read more about pbl from a teaching perspective to find some tips to encourage my students posted by kris at 5 15 2010 3 comments labels earth science experiments weather websites sunday may 2 2010 cloud investigation day 1 we began our first day of our cloud study i described the scenario from the booklet and read the first section of the prerequisite knowledge here they are in two groups doing the first activity brainstorming the two kids in the foreground are the 5th graders while the other group has two 3rd graders and a 4th grader in it even though the packet is designed for grades 5 through 8 the younger group is enjoying the process and understanding the material i then had all 10 kids in the kitchen for second activity the cloud in a bottle demonstration the picture is from the night before when i was trying it out at home i should have taken a video so you could see how the cloud disappears when you squeeze the bottle high pressure and then reappears when you release it the next activity is three days of observations for cloud classification posted by kris at 5 02 2010 no comments labels earth science experiments our athomescience weather saturday april 24 2010 cloud study beginning we don t have that many weeks until our summer break and i wanted to finish up our year of earth science learning something related to weather i searched the nasa educators web site and found four weather related lesson plans for grades 5 through 8 investigating the climate system clouds weather wind and precipitation you can see the links for the others from the clouds link the clouds guide is 31 pages though only pages 3 through 11 are student related while the rest are for teachers the premise is that the students have been hired as interns in the state climatology office and they need to investigate a letter written to them by a 3rd grader through a series of 5 activities each activity is supposed to take around 45 minutes so this guide alone should be enough to take our co op to the summer i ordered some books about clouds and the water cycle to start us out and i was excited to find one available by jeanne bendick how to make a cloud i got a couple of generic children s science books but i found what look to be a couple of nice gems too posted by kris at 4 24 2010

science as with history say should be of a literary character and we should probably be more scientific as a people if we scrapped all the text books which swell publishers lists and nearly all the chalk expended so freely on our blackboards charlotte mason a philosophy of education some teachers may give a live lesson from a stuffed specimen and other teachers may stuff their pupils with facts about a live specimen of the two the former is preferable anna botsford comstock handbook of nature study science can purify religion from error and superstition religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes pope john paul ii beautiful is what we see more beautiful is what we understand most beautiful is what we do not comprehend bl nicolas steno founder of modern geology go

and no other will you arrive at a knowledge of the true nature of things petrus severinus 16th century danish alchemist all this propaganda for literacy of one sort or another comes from people who believe that everyone should share their particular views of what the most important knowledge is and what conclusions should be drawn from it in other words they want others to be indoctrinated henry
