Before diving into our 'Daily 5' after break, we discussed how we will be learning about clouds this week. We read Eric Carl's 'Little Cloud' and went outside to look at different clouds in the sky and what they look like. After that we came back to the classroom, and used 'cloud paint' (glue and shaving foam), to draw some of the clouds we saw. We also made a list of different shapes we saw in the clouds. This is an introductory activity to learning about the types of clouds, which we will be doing tomorrow. We will be focusing our learning on only cirrus, cumulus, and stratus clouds.
As always, feel free to pop in any time before or after school to take a look at your child's cloud painting. I am sure they would love to share it with you.
