Domain: Cognitive Goal: Acquire scientific knowledge related to the earth sciences: weather. Concept: Clouds become filled with water; the water weighs the clouds down after time. Eventually, the water comes out as rain. Materials: Grey water (food coloring), cotton balls, bowls, and droppers. Structuring: In small groups of 3 or 4, hand children one cotton ball and one dropper. They will fill the droppers with the gray water and slowly squeeze the water on the cotton balls.
