Cloud Identification Activity

Students read short weather descriptions and determine which cloud type-Cumulus, Cirrus, Stratus, or Nimbus-matches each scenario. This helps learners identify clouds based on appearance and associated weather. The activity strengthens observational reasoning and reinforces cloud characteristics taught in weather units. The final drawing task invites students to sketch and label their favorite cloud type, including its height and typical weather, supporting creativity and visual learning.
