Then answer each question.  \nWhat Are Clouds?  \nA cloud is made of water drops or ice crystals floating in the sky. There are many kinds of clouds. Clouds are an important part of Earth’s weather.  \nHow Do Clouds Form?  \nThe sky can be full of water. But most of the time you can't see the water. The drops of water are too small to see. They have turned into a gas called water vapor. As the water vapor goes higher  \nin the sky, the air gets cooler. The cooler air causes the water droplets to start to stick to things like bits of dust, ice or sea salt.  \nWhat Are Some Types of Clouds?  \nClouds get their names in two ways. One way is by where they are found in the sky. Some clouds are high up in the sky. Low clouds form closer to Earth's surface. In fact, low clouds can even touch the ground. These clouds are called fog. Middle clouds are found between low and high clouds.  \nGrade 3 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nAnother way clouds are named is by their shape. Cirrus clouds are high clouds. They look like feathers. Cumulus clouds are middle clouds. These clouds look like giant cotton balls in the sky. Stratus clouds are low clouds. They cover the sky like bed sheets.  \nWhat Causes Rain?  \nMost of the water in clouds is in very small droplets. The droplets are so light they float in the air. Sometimes those droplets join with other droplets. Then they turn into larger  \ndrops. When that happens, gravity causes  \nthem to fall to Earth. We call the falling water drops “rain”. When the air is colder, the water may form snowflakes instead. Freezing rain, sleet or even hail can fall from clouds.  \nWhy Does NASA Study Clouds?  \nClouds are important for many reasons. Rain and snow are two of those reasons. At night, clouds reflect heat and keep the ground warmer. During the day, clouds make shade that can keep us cooler. Studying clouds helps NASA better understand Earth's weather. NASA uses satellites in space to study clouds.  \nGrade 3 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nNASA also studies clouds on other planets. Mars has clouds that are like the clouds on Earth. But other planets have clouds that aren't made of water. For example, Jupiter has clouds made of a gas called ammonia.  \n[Via NASA Educational Technology Services]  \nQuestions:  \n1. What do drops of water turn into?  \n2.
