I recently taught a science and language arts integrated lesson to my peers. While the purpose of the lesson was to teach expository writing, I was also able to teach about different cloud shapes and cloud types (CA science content for 1st and 2nd grade). First, I read a picture book on different types of clouds and then had my students brainstorm words and phrases describing four different cloud types. Then, students created a cloud of their choice using cotton balls and wrote about the cloud of their choice. Below is a picture of the brainstorm as well as a student sample of the assignment.
