  1. Water Cycle By: Rajeev mandal School : St. Joseph High school colaba. Std: 8th

  2. I conducted an activity to make student understand the concept of water cycle ... • then I conducted a role play by making certain student act as clouds, rain, etc.. • After that I showed them how we let rain water get wasted without conserving it.

  3. Identify and explain natural cycles of the earth’s land, water and atmospheric systems (e.g. water cycle, weather patterns)

  4. Activity • Name three ways water gets back into oceans and lakes

  5. Match water cycle vocabulary with the definitions • Explain the importance of the water cycle

  6. Vocabulary • Condensation-Water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. • Precipitation-occurs when so much water has condensed that the air cannot hold it anymore so the clouds get heavy and water falls back to the earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet or snow. • Evaporation- is when the sun heats up water in rivers or lakes or the ocean and turns it into vapor or steam. The water vapor or steam leaves the river, lake or ocean and goes into the air.

  7. Transpiration-is the process by which plants lose water out of their leaves.  Transpiration gives evaporation a bit of a hand in getting the water vapor back up into the air. • Atmosphere-blanket of air surrounding the earth. • Surface runoff- water that flows down hill into streams, rivers, ponds and lakes.

  8. Accommodations • Extended time on tests and quizzes • Having directions re-explained by classmate • Guided notes • Tasks to be completed written on the board • Enlarged print

  9. Squishy ball to play with while teacher gives directions • Verbal reminders of what the student should be doing • Task check off list (taped on desk) • Preferential seating • Using a variety of teaching styles to reach different modalities of learning

  10. Modifications • Marginal gloss for some of the vocabulary (e.g. precipitation=rain, snow) • Alternative worksheets/assignments • Simplified vocabulary used on tests • Learning basic information on the water cycle (difference between an ocean and a lake) • Only need to know two parts of the water cycle (evaporation and percipatation)

  11. Tips for Parents • Make their children aware about importance of rain water. • Ask kids on a rainy day where the rain comes from and where it will go to reinforce their learning

  12. The End
