Making a Cloud

Today for science we were looking at how clouds are made through condensation. We used a model to see how this works by putting hot water in a beaker to represent how the sun heats the earth and the seas, the cling wrap on top to represent the atmosphere and the ice on top for the temperature of space.
We learnt:

• How to measure in millilitres.
• Heat rises.
• Hot water vapour (steam) rises and collects at the top (condensation).
• This process is the same way a cloud is made!

Look out for our cloud writing next week.
