Going on a Cloud Scavenger Hunt

As a part of our Montessori Cloud Study, we decided to take a cloud scavenger hunt. Our spring weather has been ideal for rapidly changing cloud movement. One moment, it's beautiful and a few hours later, spring showers have rolled in. This has been ideal for helping my kids learn about different types of clouds. 

To be clear, there are a lot of types of clouds, but I mainly wanted them to master 4 types:
Cumulus
Cirrus
Stratus
and Cumulonimbus

With this knowledge in hand, they can "read" the sky at a level appropriate for small kids and possibly even predict the weather.

The scavenger hunt was enjoyed by all, and mostly focuses on having children draw what they see in the clouds and relate it to the cloud vocabulary they have been learning. If your students are new to cloud vocabulary, grab the free montessori cloud cards here!
