1. 3-D Poster Clouds and Precipitation Standard SM1e: Compare the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere to characteristic atmospheric conditions.

2. Requirements 1.Has multiple levels of depth and different textures (5pts) 2.Choice of objects appropriately models the desired precip/cloud (5pts) 3.At least 90% of types of clouds/precip are represented (10pts) 4.Oral description and visual representation of objects conveys appropriate student understanding of types of clouds and precipitation (20pts)

3. Analysis 1.Different textures represent different clouds. Why? 2.Different objects represent different types of precipitation. Why? 3.Certain clouds produce precipitation. Why? 4.Certain clouds are made of ice versus liquid water. Why? 5.How does the amount of water vapor present influence the size/type of the cloud?
