Person 4

You will create a weather dictionary in Spanish and English using weather terms and clip art, real photos or drawing (or a combination) to accompany the description. You need to create a cover for your book and give it a "Title", or create an original PowerPoint slide show and write 2-3 convincing line in Spanish to sell your " El diccionario o presentación del clima" to the public during the TV weather forecast, like what are you selling, how much it cost, why you should buy it, where can it be found, what is so special about it. If they call in the next 2 minutes, and they buy it, do they get anything free or any deals? (Yes, you will have to talk!)

Definición: Conjunto de partículas muy finas de agua o de hielo que constituyen una masa de vapor acuoso suspendida en la atmósfera. Las nubes se forman por condensación del vapor de agua existente en la atmósfera, lo cual da lugar a gotitas cuyo diámetro es del orden de las 20 micras, que se mantienen en suspensión debido a su escaso peso.

Definition: A visible collection of minute particle matter, such as water droplets and/or ice crystals, in the free air. A cloud forms in the atmosphere as a result of condensation of water vapor. Condensation nuclei, such as in smoke or dust particles, form a surface upon which water vapor can condense.
