Clouds Unit – Two More Great Resources
1) While sifting through books from my library I found another great read for studying clouds:
by Julie Hannah and Joan Holub
About this book: Born in England in 1772, Luke Howard began keeping a weather journal when he was 10 years old. He maintained an interest in weather and clouds all his life, though he supported himself and his family as a chemist. In 1802, he proposed a system of classifying clouds into seven types, basing their names on the Latin words cirrus, cumulus, and stratus. His system was adopted and, in adapted form, is still used today. This colorful book balances biographical and historical information with basic weather science, presented in the form of a modern child’s monthly weather journal. Artwork includes reproductions of a portrait of Howard and his own paintings of clouds.
2) Also, Lori from Camp Creek Press thoughtfully lead me to this absolutely fantastic and FREE e-book:
by Jane Kirkland
I’ve added both of these resources to my original Clouds Unit Study post.
