Wonderful Discussion Activity!
This article opened my eyes to the misconceptions students may have about clouds. I have never truly thought about what clouds may look like in the eyes of children. I know I didn't think about the natural phenomenon of clouds much as a child. My only thought was that they release rain. I love how in depth this article goes into about the resources of confusion when teaching the water cycle. Teaching the water cycle and states of matter are closely related instructional topics, so I would definitely use this article as a resource when teaching these topics to my students. I especially love the idea of whether a cloud is a solid, liquid, or a gas as a discussion starter to spark student thinking.
