Clouds IntroductionTaskProcessEvaluationConclusion Clouds are large collections of tiny droplets of water or ice crystals. Because the droplets are so small and light, they are able to float in air. Back

IntroductionTaskProcessEvaluationConclusion Temperature is a degree of hotness or coldness that can be measured using a thermometer. Temperature Back

Rain IntroductionTaskProcessEvaluationConclusion Back When clouds get big enough and have enough water, the water droplets in the cloud bang together to form even bigger rain drops. When the drops get heavy, they fall. The drops falling is what we know as rain.

IntroductionTaskProcessEvaluationConclusion Back Sleet Sleet is caused by rain becoming frozen as it falls.

IntroductionTaskProcessEvaluationConclusion Snow Back Frozen precipitation (water) in the form of ice crystals that fall in soft, white flakes.

IntroductionTaskProcessEvaluationConclusion Sunshine Back Light given off from the sun.
