Clouds

Friday (13/02/2009)

a) Experiment results
Finally, the 9 variety drink were evaporated and there were very little liquid. We discussed the reason. Evaporation happened but quite slow as the last 2 days was cloudy.
Thus, we talked about clouds.

b) Poem: Clouds
Clouds are big and small;
Some are even thick.
But when I see a cloud,
I see tigers, and dinos
and other things.
Tell me what you see.
I’ve just got to know!

After reading, we looked out of the window. Song Chuan said the cloud looked like a face. We could see some small black clouds. They moved slowly to another spot. It was the wind. The cloud changed its pattern in a while.

c) Water balloon
Each kid took a balloon individually. We filled them with the tap water. Then we played outdoor pretending to be a water drop.
Firstly, we flowed in the river. Then, it evaporated into the cloud. The kids formed a few types of cloud pattern. Then, we scattered as the wind blew. They were very happy.
Then, we tried throwing the water balloons into the plastic swimming pool. Some burst while some were cut with scissors.
They soaked themselves and flapped…..:)
