Cloud Type Sketches

Students sketch and label six major cloud types using simple shapes to represent each cloud’s appearance. They then write notes about the kind of weather typically associated with each cloud formation. This activity engages students in visual learning while reinforcing scientific classification. By drawing the clouds, learners deepen their understanding of distinguishing features such as altitude, texture, and structure. The written component helps them connect cloud appearance to predictable weather conditions.
