                            and gluing on the raindrops

Cut out cloud shapes and glue them to a large piece of black construction paper.  Cut out blue raindrops and set aside.  I typed and printed off the following saying . . .  It's Raining, It's Pouring . . .

Rain is falling form the clouds, count the drops as the fall down!

 

Directions:  Roll the dice.  Count the dots.  Write the number on the first cloud.  Count out the matching number of raindrops and glue the raindrops below the cloud.  Repeat. 

(If you get the same number roll again)

It's Raining, It's Pouring

It's raining; it's pouring.

He went to bed and bumped his head,

And he couldn't get up in the morning.
