2. The Water Cycle Explained The water cycle has four components: – Evaporation – Accumulation – Condensation – Precipitation

3. Evaporation Evaporation is when a liquid turns into a gas or vapor from a heat source, i/e the Sun.

4. How I modeled evaporation Burner on our stove to replicate the Sun:

5. Condensation Condensation is the process of water vapor in air turning into liquid water.

6. How I modeled condensation Moisture that formed on the inside of the plastic wrap:

7. Precipitation Precipitation is water falling from the sky.

8. How I modeled precipitation Drops of water from condensation drips into cup:

9. Accumulation Accumulation is the final stage of the water cycle and is collected by lakes, rivers, oceans, and other bodies of water.

10. How I modeled accumulation Water collecting into the cup from the large bowl:
