Let’s match each cloud drawing to its correct name by thinking about what each type of cloud looks like.
Step 1: Look at cloud #1 — it’s thin, wispy, and curly, like feathers or horse tails. That’s classic
Cirrus clouds. So #1 → C. Cirrus.
Step 2: Cloud #2 is puffy and white, like cotton balls floating in the sky. Those are
Cumulus clouds. So #2 → A. Cumulus.
Step 3: Cloud #3 is flat, gray, and stretches across the sky like a blanket. That’s
Stratus. So #3 → D. Stratus.
Step 4: Cloud #4 is dark, heavy-looking, and piled up high — that means rain might be coming! That’s
Nimbus (or nimbostratus/cumulonimbus). So #4 → B. Nimbus.
Double-check:
- Wispy = Cirrus
✔
- Puffy = Cumulus
✔
- Flat layer = Stratus
✔
- Dark & rainy = Nimbus
✔
Final Answer:
1 → C
2 → A
3 → D
4 → B
