Wonder of the Day....Why Does It Rain?

Today we visited the Wonder Room to explore the question:  why does it rain?   The students worked through the scientific process to explore what happens when a cloud gets heavy with droplets.
       
  
Throughout the afternoon today some of our students will be commenting on this post telling about their experience.  Feel free to comment or to ask them questions about what they learned today!!

    I thought it was really fun! First you have to get a clear cup and fill it up with water to the first line. Then you have to get shaving cream and put it on top of the water.Last you have to get red,blue,and green food coloring. After that you shut the food coloring and the shaving cream. Then you watch it rain!! You need a big and round cup of water and one can of shaving cream and one thing of food coloring. You need to put a little shaving cream on top but make sure the shaving cream all over the top of the cup. We went to the wonder room to do it.
