3-D PosterClouds and Precipitation

Standard SM1e:Compare the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere to characteristic atmospheric

conditions.

Requirements

1. Has multiple levels of depth and different textures (5pts)

2. Choice of objects appropriately models the desired precip/cloud (5pts)

3. At least 90% of types of clouds/precip are represented (10pts)

4. Oral description and visual representation of objects conveys appropriate student understanding of types of clouds and precipitation (20pts)

Analysis1. Different textures represent different

clouds. Why?2. Different objects represent different types

of precipitation. Why?3. Certain clouds produce precipitation.

Why?4. Certain clouds are made of ice versus

liquid water. Why?5. How does the amount of water vapor

present influence the size/type of the cloud?
