  1. Developed by the GPM Education and Public Outreach Team NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Exploring the Water Cycle

  2. ENGAGE Where does our drinking water come from? How do we use water in our daily life?

  3. EXPLORE: Model Water Cycle

  4. EXPLAIN: Webquest Follow a molecule of water through the water cycle: http://pmm.nasa.gov/education/videos/tour-water-cycle

  5. EXPLORE: Water, Water Everywhere Learn more about the water cycle: http://pmm.nasa.gov/education/videos/water-water-everywhere

  6. Explain: Model Water Cycle What do you observe? What is on the plastic wrap? Why? What is in the mug? Why? What does the water in the bowl represent? What does the plastic wrap represent?

  7. EVALUATE Draw a picture of the water cycle. Add words, arrows, etc. as needed. Where is the hydrosphere, atmosphere, biosphere, geosphere?

  8. EXTEND Can you name these parts of the water cycle?

  9. GPM The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Satellite will collect precipitation data from around the world. Knowing where and how much rain or snow falls globally is vital to understanding how weather and climate impact both our environment and Earth’s water and energy cycles. Precipitation patterns have effects on agriculture, fresh water availability, and responses to natural disasters.

  10. Video- “Freshwater Connection”
