1 LIVE INTERACTIVE YOUR DESKTOP NES: Meterology: How Clouds Form Presented by: Rudo Kashiri August 30, 2011
2 Meteorology: How Clouds Form Rudo Kashiri NES Education Specialist Langley Research Center
3 Agenda Featured lesson: How clouds form NASA Connection S COOL Project: Extension Activity NASA Explorer Schools
4 How clouds form Grade level 5-9 Subject Area: Earth Science National Science Standards: Structure of Earth system Transfer of energy Structured inquiry activity Objective: Introduce the basics of cloud formation
5 Where to find the lesson materials/listbytype/meteorology_guide.html Chapter 12: How Clouds Form - Understanding Principles of Precipitation
6 Poll Question What type of cloud is illustrated below? A. Cirrus B. Cumulus C. Stratus D. Nimbus
7 Name the combinations (Write answer in the chat) Cumulus lumpy Cirrus wispy Stratus layered Nimbus raining Alto mid-level Contrails - streaks
8 Let s Pause for Questions.
9 How do clouds form? A. Evaporation B. Condensation C. Rain D. Radiation
10 Materials Large clear plastic soda bottle with screw-on cap Squeeze bottle with long plastic hose 5 different color pens Dark-colored construction paper Wooden matches Safety glasses
11
12 Create a Cloud in a bottle No water What change did you observe inside the bottle? Just water What change did you observe inside the bottle? Water and Smoke What change did you observe inside the bottle?
13
14 Let s Pause for Questions.
15 Air pressure influences the formation of clouds in the atmosphere. Valve stem Drill 3/8-inch drill bit 2-Liter Clear Plastic Bottle with cap or stopper Matches Water Foot pump Safety goggles
16 Tips and warnings To reverse the cloud formation, re-stopper and pump air into the bottle. The use of safety goggles is strongly recommended. Over pressurization of the bottle may cause it to rupture or explode Another version of Cloud in a Bottle, using rubbing alcohol and NO matches
17 Further investigation What effect does water temperatures have on the cloud formation? Does the size and type of particle make a difference in cloud formation? (smoke from a candle, chalk dust, talcum powder, etc) Using a slide projector or strong flashlight, shine some bright light through the bottle and view the bottle from various angles. The scattering and diffraction may cause different colors to emerge, and these colors can change.
