🌥️☁️ CHS Tigers Making Clouds! ☁️🌥️ The CHS students in Ms. Selestok's and Ms. McNeal's class have been studying weather and different types of clouds! ⛅️🌦️ To bring their learning to life, they decided to make their own clouds. How did they do it? 🤔💨 By using a jar, warm water, ice, and a little hairspray, they created a cloud in a jar! 🌡️❄️💨 The warm water created water vapor, the ice cooled it down, and the hairspray provided tiny particles for the water droplets to cling to—just like real clouds in the sky! 🌎✨ Great job, Tigers! 🐯💛🖤 #CHSTigers #ScienceFun #CloudCreators #WeatherExplorers
