Explanation
A cloud looks soft and white, so we make it from cotton wool. We cut raindrops from blue paper and hang them from the cloud on threads. Then the cloud becomes a hanging decoration.
Worked examples
A card cloud + cotton wool + 5 blue drops on threads.
Class activity
Steps: 1) Draw a cloud on card and cut it out. 2) Spread glue on it and stick on cotton wool. 3) Cut raindrops from blue paper. 4) Glue them on threads under the cloud and add a thread on top for hanging. Safety: hold the thread tight when cutting it and keep your fingers aside.
