  1. The Water Cycle Foldable activity

  2. In the Clouds CONDENSATION • If heat is taken away from water vapor, it forms ______________________. • _____________________ turns water vapor into a liquid. Water vapor condenses into millions of tiny droplets that form clouds. Clouds lose their water as rain, hail, snow, sleet, or freezing rain. PRECIPITATION

  3. TRANSPIRATION TRANSPIRATION • Water even evaporates from plants. This is called _______________________. • Plants, such as trees, lose water out of their leaves after they have absorbed water through their roots from the ground. _____________________ helps keep plants cool in the same way that perspiration keeps animals, such as humans cool. • The rate at which water will evaporate or transpire from plants depends on the temperature, wind, and humidity. TRANSPIRATION WATER ABSORBED BY ROOTS

  4. PRECIPITATION • _____________________ is either absorbed into the ground or runs off into the rivers. Water that was absorbed into the ground is taken up by plants. • The Cycle Continues • How is the weather related to the water cycle?

  5. Solid, liquid, or gas? SOLID • Water on Earth is always changing. Its repeating changes make a cycle. As water goes through its cycle, it can be a ________________ (ice), a _____________ (water), or a ________________ (water vapor). • Water can change to become ice or water vapor. Water vapor can change to become ice or water. GAS LIQUID

  6. Just add some heat EVAPORATES • If heat is added to ice, it melts. If heat is added to water, it __________________. • _________________ turns liquid water into a gas called water vapor. • Water that was absorbed into the ground is taken up by plants. Plants lose water from their surfaces as vapor back into the atmosphere. • _____________ ______________ water runs off into rivers, flows into ponds, lakes, or oceans where it evaporates back in the atmosphere.
