Don't Rain on My Parade

So I planned to have summer vacation, I really did. But when I told Jacob summer vacation was starting he was not impressed. "But I like math and I want to learn about thunderstorms." And then he proceeded to detail the way he forsaw learning about thunderstorms. So here we are, in August, starting a new unit study on STORMS. We began by making rain clouds. This activity shows that when clouds get too heavy with water, they rain....



It's a shaving cream cloud! We filled the glasses with water and then added the cloud. We put food colouring on top and it makes its way through the cloud and rains! So cool!


Then, of course, we made purple and red rain too!

This was so much fun we actually used up all of Jeff's shaving cream.
