Clouds information report


WALT write information reports about weather. An information report has a title, a general statement that tells what it's about, a description which gives the reader all the information and an evaluation which sums up what the writer has said,

Clouds information report

A cloud is a large collection of very tiny droplets of water or ice crystals. The droplets are so small and light that they can float in the air.


The sun heats the ocean which then heats the air  making an invisible  cloud of water vapor.  This makes a tiny droplet around a dust particle and then forms a visible cloud.

Since clouds are made of water and ice crystals when the rainbow colors hit the cloud makes it white.

Because the water droplets on ice crystals get too thick and then the light
can' t go through so it turns into a dark grey color .

A cloud is made up of liquid water droplets. A cloud forms when air is heated by the sun. As it rises, it slowly cools it reaches the saturation point and water condenses, forming a cloud. As long as the cloud and the air that its made of is warmer than the outside air around it, it floats!

Clouds move with the wind. High cirrus clouds are pushed along by the jet stream, sometimes traveling at more than 100 miles-per-hour. When clouds are part of a thunderstorm they usually travel at 30 to 40 mph.
The characteristics of clouds are dictated by the elements available, including the amount of water vapor, the temperatures at that height, the wind, and the interplay of other air masses.

  1. Hi Kade.
    Wow! You have really been working hard on your writing, I am very impressed.
    I leaned a lot from your information report on clouds, it was very informative. You have included a lot of facts about clouds and have taught me some things too! You have proofread and edited your writing well so that it flows well and is easy to read. I like the way you have used such captivating vocabulary as well.

    Next time try to write another sentence to conclude your information report.

    From Miss McLeod.

    1. Hi Miss McLeod. Thank you for looking at my blog. I am glad that you learnt something from my cloud information report. We do miss you in our learning space. I hope you are enjoying your trip overseas. What do you miss most about New Zealand? Mrs McG thinks you are missing her the most but I'm thinking you're missing me the most out of me and Mrs McG.
