Do you know how clouds form? Can you name different types of clouds? Do you even know what clouds are? Go to the link below and learn about clouds. Make sure that you check out the link on how clouds form. There is even a cloud matching game. Share with one another what you learned about clouds.
Clouds
Yes, clouds form from condensation in the upper part of the troposohere. Cumulus clouds are fluffy, bunny-like shapes, that form on sunny days. Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy, hair-like strips that can be compared to a horse's tail. Stratus clouds are dark-gray, low-lying, rain clouds, that are flat. Cumulonimbus are towering, gray storm clouds. Yes, clouds are collections of water droplets that eventually fall, causing rain.
ReplyDeleteWe agree with everything you said. We didn't know that Cirrus clouds can be compared to a horse's tail.
DeleteWe never thought of Cirrus clouds like horse tails, interesting.
DeleteClouds form from the condensation of water vapor. This is a collection of water in which it can come down as rain, sleet, hail, and snow. 4 common types of clouds are stratus, altostratus, cirrus, and cumulus but there are many other types too.
ReplyDeleteI never knew there was a cloud called altostratus. That is very cool.
DeleteI always thought that the altostratus clouds were called something else. It is very interesting that their name is not what i thought.
DeleteDid you know that there is also a type of cloud called a nimbostratus that produces long, continuous rain?
DeleteClouds form condensation. Cumulus clouds are puffy clouds. Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy clouds blown by high winds into long streamers. Stratus clouds are grayish clouds that often cover the entire sky. Cumulonimbus clouds are very tall storm clouds. Clouds are what hold all the tiny little water droplets that will eventually fall to the ground.
ReplyDeleteClouds do not only hold the tiny water droplets they are made of tiny water droplets.
DeleteClouds DO NOT form condensation!! Clouds are FORMED FROM condensation!
Delete@ Murphy and Brett
DeleteWe think that it is crazy that there so many types of clouds and they all end up becoming precipitation. They usually all become cumulus clouds.

ReplyDeleteIt is smart that you guys described what clouds look like. I can never tell what kinds of clouds are in the sky.
DeleteThe main process from which clouds form is condensation. The different types of clouds are cumulus, stratus, altocumulus, cirrocumulus, cirrus, cumulonibus, altostratus, and stratocumulus.We are familiar with the cloud names, but since there are so many types, we aren't sure about what types they are. We looked at the picture with the cloud names on them, and we have a general idea about what each cloud looks like.
ReplyDeleteWe agree with your post but do you know how do clouds stay combined instead of being there own?
DeleteClouds form from condensation of water vapor in the atmosphere. There are three types of clouds cumulus, cirrus, and stratus. Cumulus clouds are big fluffy white clouds. Cirrus clouds are thin wispy clouds. Stratus clouds are thick big clouds that cover the sky like a blanket.
ReplyDelete@Bryant and Drew
DeleteWe forgot to put the water vapor part of forming clouds.
A cloud is made up of tiny water droplets, a cloud is formed when the water from the earths surface evaporates. The different types of clouds are the cumulus, cirrus, stratus, altostratus.
ReplyDelete~taylar H
Another cloud is cumulonimbus.
DeleteClouds are formed by water molecules being condensed, they usually form in the troposphere. different types of clouds are stratus cumulus cumulonimbus cirrus altocumulus cirrocumulus and startocumulus.
ReplyDeleteZach ALSO helped on this one
DeleteYes,we know that clouds form from condensation. The different clouds are cirrus clouds, which are thin and wispy and very high up in the sky. Then there are stratus clouds, which are grey or white clouds that are lower than cirrus and often cover the whole sky. Then , there are cumulonimbus clouds, which are towering, grey clouds. Clouds are large collections of water droplets that will eventually fall to the ground, which would cause rain.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Nimbus?
Delete@ Brett Kron & Matthew Murphy,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I don't see you blogging with Murphy Mister. And second of all we both agree that clouds form from condensation. I liked how you explained the different types of clouds.
Clouds form from condensation. Three types of clouds are are Cumulus, Cirrus, and Stratus. Cumulus clouds are the normal puffy clouds. Cirrus clouds are thin clouds up in the sky. Stratus clouds are cover up the entire sky and rain. Yes clouds are what hold water droplets until they cant hold any more.
ReplyDeleteClouds form from condensation of water vapor. Condensation is the process by which water vapor undergoes a change of state from a gas to a liquid. When we learned about the different clouds in fourth grade, we learned the four main types. Stratus, which are grey and usually spread across the whole sky. Altostratus, which often occur humid summer mornings, usually bring thunderstorms by late afternoon. The next cloud is Cirrus, which are thin and wispy clouds. The last cloud type is Cumulus, which look like floating cotton balls.
ReplyDeleteClouds form by condensation. The types of clouds are stratus, cumulus, cumulonimbus, and altostratus. clouds are gatherings of water droplets in the atmosphere.

ReplyDeleteMeara, just out of curiosity, what's your favorite type of cloud? Which one do you think is the coolest?
Delete@ Brett Kron and Matthew Murphy
ReplyDeleteI liked how you described the clouds well.
Clouds are formed when pockets of air rise and cool.
ReplyDeleteThe different types of clouds are cirrus, stratus, stratocumulus, cumulus, altocumulus, cirrocumulus, cumulonimbus, cirrostratus, altostratua, and nimbostratus.
we to disagree that the clouds are formed when pockets of air rise and cool it is the water vapor in the atmosphere.
DeleteClouds are formed by the condensation of water vapor.The types of clouds are stratus, cumulus, cumulonimbus, and altostratus. clouds are gatherings of water droplets in the atmosphere.Clouds are just condensed drops of water.Stratus,are darker and usually spread across the entire sky. Altostratus, usually occur during humid summers, usually bring thunderstorms in the afternoon. The next cloud is Cirrus, they are thin and wispy clouds.Cumulus,look like cotton balls.
ReplyDeleteWe like how informational your paragraph is. We like how you described all the clouds.
Delete@Cara and Jenna
DeleteWe like how you describe the clouds like cotton balls.
We learned the main process of cloud reformation is condensation. There are four different types of clouds. The low clouds are stratus clouds, the middle clouds are alto stratus, the high clouds are cirrus, and the clouds with vertical development are cumulus.
ReplyDeleteI think there's more than 4 different types of clouds, There 4 classes of clouds.
DeleteThere is only 4 cloud types.

ReplyDeleteWe agree, we put the same thing for how clouds are formed, but we think it would have been a bit better to list what the cloud types look like/what they mean. But other than that we think everything is right.
DeleteWe agree with your post but we think it could have had more information and detail.Also with the clouds I think you should have said more about the and how the work.
Delete~Kylie Lonneman and Erin Pegg
Yeah. We didn't really think about that till later.
DeleteStratus- low lying, covers a lot of sky and grey.
Cirrus- Thin and wispy, doesn't cover a lot of space
cumulonimbus-Tall, grey storm clouds
cumulus- Cotton ball shape
Clouds are formed from water by condensed water vapor. There are many types of clouds that mean many different things. Stratus, which are grey and usually spread across the whole sky. Altostratus, which often occur humid summer mornings, usually bring thunderstorms by late afternoon. The next cloud is Cirrus, which are thin and wispy clouds. The last cloud type is Cumulus, which look like floating cotton balls.
ReplyDeleteClouds are condensed water vapor. They form when water evaporates at collects in the sky or atmosphere. Some different types of clouds are cirrus, stratus, cirrocumulus, altocumulus, stratocumulus, cumulonibus, cumulus, cirrostratus, altostratus and, nimbostratus. Clouds are collections of water up in the sky, which can come down in several forms including rain, sleet and hail.

ReplyDeleteI know a lot about clouds so I don't think I needed to play the game.-Dominic Deutsch
ReplyDeleteMs.Dietrich,
ReplyDeleteA cloud is composed of tiny water droplets or ice crystals that are suspended in the air. If the droplets become large enough they may be visible as a cloud or fog.Droplets may also fall to Earth in the form of rain or snow.The different types of clouds are stratus,altotstatus,cirrus and cumulus.Stratus clouds are grayish clouds that often cover the entire sky. They look like fog that does not reach the ground. Usually no precipitation falls from stratus clouds but sometimes they may drizzle. When a thick fog lifts the resulting clouds are low stratus.Altocumulus clouds are middle level clouds that are made of water droplets and appear as gray puffy masses sometimes rolled out in parallel waves or bands. The look of these clouds on a warm humid summer morning often means thunderstorms may occur by late afternoon.Cirrus clouds are thin wispy clouds blown by high winds into long streamers. They are considered high clouds forming above 6000 m (or 20,000 ft.). Cirrus clouds usually move across the sky from west to east. They generally mean fair to pleasant weather.Cumulus clouds are puffy clouds that sometimes look like pieces of floating cotton. The base of each cloud is often flat and may be only 1000 m (or 330 ft) above the ground. The top of the cloud has rounded towers. When the top of the cumulus resembles the head of a cauliflower it is called cumulus congestus or towering cumulus. These clouds grow upward and they can develop into a giant cumulonimbus which is a thunderstorm cloud.

ReplyDelete@Erin and Kylie,
ReplyDeleteI Like How you two girls put it in i big full paragraph explaining every detail but i thought that you two were kinda having run on's.
yes i do know how clouds form . name
ReplyDelete1.stratus
2.cirrus
3.cumulus
4.altostratus.
clouds are not formed with water the atopshere is .
fog comes from clouds and snow plus rain .
weather can form in many diffent ways .
well i think fog actually is a type of low cloud, so it does not come from clouds.
Deletei agree with Rachel Lincoln because i also think it is a type of low cloud
DeleteStratus cumulus cumulonimbus cirrus. clouds are water vapor and dust partials. yes we know what clouds are.
ReplyDeleteYes I know how clouds are formed. No I can not name different clouds. Yes I know what clouds are. What I learned was that clouds form condensation. Cumulus clouds are puffy clouds. Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy clouds blown by high winds into long streamers. Then stratus clouds are grayish clouds that often cover the entire sky. Cumulonimbus clouds are very tall storm clouds. Also Clouds are what hold all the tiny little water droplets that will eventually fall to the ground.
ReplyDeleteClouds form mainly from condensation. The types of clouds are Cirrus, Altostratus, Cumulus, Stratus, and Cumulonimbus. Clouds are big or small collections of water in the air.

DeleteYes.Stratus, Alto stratus,Cirrus,Cumulus.Yes they are water molecules heated up and joined together.
ReplyDeleteClouds are big puffs of water vapor. Clouds can cause weather with temperature pressure volume and density.
ReplyDeleteit when water evaporates and turns in to a cloud

ReplyDeleteclouds form from condensation in the atmosphere some types of clouds are cumulus,cumulonimbus, and stratus. clouds hold water vapor that can come down as rain, snow, sleet, or hail so as a solid or liquid.there are also different levels clouds form at.
ReplyDeleteyeah, clouds form from condensation.The 4 main cloud types are cirrus,stratus,cumulonimbus and cumulus. Precipitation is rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
ReplyDeletei like your post but u could of added what each cloud is located in the sky
DeleteI like it but the 4 main clouds are cirrus,stratus,nimbo,cumulus.
DeleteClouds are formed from condensation in the upper part of the troposphere, where most of earths weather happens. There are Cumulus, Stratus, Cirrus, and Nimbus clouds. Clouds are collections of water droplets. One other thing that I learned about clouds is how they impact our lives.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job on this post, but you could have told us how cloud's impact our live's since you mentioned it , but you still did a great job!
DeleteIf the air cools. The water vapor molecules in the air slow down. As they slow down, some molecules are not able to maintain their vapor form. They cluster (condense) in the air to form tiny liquid droplets.A cloud is composed of tiny water droplets (or ice crystals) that are suspended in the air. If the droplets become large enough,they may be visible as a cloud or fog.They may also fall to Earth in the form of rain (or snow).The different types of clouds are cumulus, stratocumulus, cumulonimbus, cirrocumulus, altocumulus, stratus, altostratus, and cirrus. Clouds are just water droplets that have evaporated into the air.
ReplyDeleteI agree on how clouds form.
DeleteYes i know how clouds form. There are cumulus, cirrus, and stratus clouds. Clouds are a collection of water droplets.
ReplyDelete@ Matthew Murphy...
ReplyDeleteI agree and your answer is very thorough. I feel that you included everything that you needed to, but you should have put that the water evaporates into the air if you were explaining how the cloud forms and you should have put that the water vapor condenses on a nuclei.
@ Brooke Chesney...
ReplyDeleteI like you answer. I like how you put that the clouds form in the troposphere and how you explained what clouds were and how they form in a single sentence. I think that you should have put what you learned about how clouds impact your life instead of just putting that you learned that they do impact you life.
clouds form by condensation in the air also because of the water cycle
ReplyDeleteThe types of clouds are
ReplyDeleteStatus
Starocumules
Cumulus
Alotostatus
Altocumules
Cirrocumulus
Cirrus
Cumulonimbus
Clouds form by tiny ice crystals and water that has evaporated in the air and from gasas in the air.
Clouds are water molucules in the air and gases that start to from the cloud so it makes the cloud from evaporation and things like that .

ReplyDeleteclouds are droplets of water that are a large collection and is a gas state called water vapor. The three types of clouds are cirrus cumulonimbus and Strauss.
ReplyDeleteYes.Stratus, alto stratus, cirrus,cumulus.As the water rises they evaporate as it increases then come together.
ReplyDeleteClouds are formatted by condensation. They are also formed by molecules. The molecules heat the cool to form ice crystals or water vapour.
ReplyDeleteClouds form by water molecules go into the air and when they do this they start to evaporate.Water vapor molecules start to loose their vapor and condense into tiny water droplets which are apart and form clouds.different types of clouds are cirrus,cumulus,cumulonimbus,
ReplyDeletestratus.Clouds are tiny liquid water droplets.

ReplyDeleteYour comment was really good you just need to put more into it.
THE clouds can 7:20the dakest part of the clouds was dirctly overhead and the frequent dance of lightning bolt was getting quitc clos loud.
ReplyDeleteCloud's are formed by warm rising, moist, air. Some type's of cloud's are, Cumulus, Stratus, Cirrus, and Cumulonimbus. And yes, I do know what cloud's are.

ReplyDeleteYes I know how clouds are formed. They are formed when warm moist air rises. This is called condensation. Yes I know the different type of clouds. Some of the clouds types are Cumulus,Stratus,Cirrus,and Nimbus. My favorite type of cloud is a Cirrus cloud because that usually means it's going to be a nice day. They are 18,000 feet above the ground. Clouds cause different weather events such as thunderstorms,tornadoes,and monsoons. These weather events can cause damage to people's belongings and they can even kill people and animals.
ReplyDeleteClouds are formed water vaper rising and cooling and the the next step is condition is the same thing when you have a cooled glass of water and small water droplets apear on the outer part of the glass.
ReplyDeleteoud's form by the moisture in the air or the water vapor in the air collect's and come's together to form the cloud's and then the water droplet's form and then when the water form's from the moisture collecting and then when the water droplet's get to heavy then it is rain.
