Hands on experiment to teach children about conduction while studying weather and learning about storms.

Science at Home: Make a Cloud in a Jar! This post includes written instructions and a video with several ways to explore weather with kids.

This hands on activity lets the students do their own experiment and see for themselves an example of how it rains from clouds. This experiment is good for the students because it shows them what happens when clouds fill with water and then rains. It shows the students about one kind of weather change in one experiment, rather than learning about several weather changes at once.

Great activity during a weather unit. 2 liter soda bottle cut in half. Put about an inch and a half of warm water (w blue food coloring) in the bottom. Invert the top of the bottle with the lid on and fill with ice. Watch the water condensate and watch it "rain"
