- 5. The Sun Thesun’s energy is necessary to power the water cycle.

- 7. Evaporation The sunwarms the water in the ocean, causing it to change from water (liquid) to water vapor (gas).

- 9. Condensation Once thewarm gas hits the cooler air it changes back into a liquid and forms a cloud.
- 10.
- 11. Tiny water droplets bounce around in the cloud. As they hit each other, they stick together and become larger.
- 12. Precipitation Once theybecome so heavy, the cloud can no longer hold them. It begins to precipitate.
- 13. Precipitation can be:Rain Snow Sleet Hail
- 14. Precipitation collects in:Rivers Lakes Oceans

- 19. Transpiration The processby which water absorbed by plants (usually through the roots) is evaporated into the atmosphere from the plant surface (principally from the leaves).
- 20. Then what? Right! It starts all over again! That is why it is called a cycle.

- 23. Evaporation Experiment DirectionsPartly fill the plastic cups with water so that they both have the same level of water. Mark the levels with the marker. Seal one of the cups with plastic wrap. Leave it for a day. Look at both cups and mark where the water levels are. Do this for a few more days, marking the levels each day and noting any change. Your child will notice that the water level goes down in the cup that has no cover. Where does the water go? Talk about the water disappearing and explain what evaporation is.
