1. The Water Cycle

Introduction Water is a substance that can naturally occur in three different forms, SOLID, LIQUID, and GAS
The solid form of water can be found in the glaciers and ice caps on the opposite poles of the Earth.
We are most familiar with water in its liquid form.
We see it in our lakes, rivers, streams, and oceans.
Water vapor rises into the atmosphere and condenses back into a liquid through clouds, fog, and mist.
The water then falls to Earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet, and snow to nourish our planet and sustain life.
Much of Earth’s water is in constant motion, and the water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of Earth. The water cycle is truly a “cycle,” with no beginning or end.

Our local water conservation plant needs our help. Their newly hired scientists do not know what the water cycle is. You may help them by doing the following…
Identify and define the water cycle,
Know and understand the terms evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.
Conduct your own water experiment with your assigned group.

Were you able to understand the water cycle so our class may help the local water conservatory train the scientists? Did you learn anything new about the water cycle? The conservatory and I hope you did and had fun while learning!
