Young scholars conduct a number of experiments involving evaporation and condensation. They view and discuss a video about the water cycle and then design posters about the rain based on the book "Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs".

Third graders examine the natural circulation of water from oceans, lakes, and rivers to evaporation into the air, and then to condensation to produce rain falling back to the soil as components of the water cycle.

How can climate change affect our water supply? Have kids read a passage about the water cycle and water conservation, which includes six questions that challenge them to use context clues.

Evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation, accumulation. Steam, clouds, rain, lakes. Guide your class members on an imaginary journey through the water cycle with a water cycle adventure script.

After having a class discussion on the three states of matter, young scientists utilize the wonderful substance, Oobleck in order to experience something that changes states of matter. They also create "sparkle jars" which...

In this water instructional activity, students review the steps involved in the water cycle. This instructional activity has 9 fill in the blank and 3 short answer questions.

Students perform experiments with water to observe the principles of evaporation and condensation. They make models of the water cycle and discuss the processes that occurred in their experiments with their jars of water.

Students describe the water cycle. Students identify the processess in the water cycle. They draw an illustration of the water cycel with arrows showing the path water takes through the cycle. Students label condesation, precipitation,...

In this water worksheet, students read a 1 page article on water, fill in the blanks of 3 words with their missing letters, fill in a crossword puzzle containing 5 clues about water and answer 1 short answer question. Students draw a...

Second graders work in small groups with a cup each of several materials. Students layer the gravel, sand, and water into a resealable bag. They draw a picture of this bag in their water journal. Students place their sealed bags in a...

In this chemical change worksheet, learners review physical changes such as evaporation and condensation before working with chemical change. They conduct an experiment with vinegar and baking soda before recording the chemical changes...

Students investigate how temperature and pressure cause a material to change phase. They heat water to reclaim a gas. They demonstrate that different liquids evaporate at different temperatures.

Students study the process of evaporation.

Students watch and discuss observations of condensation on the plastic "sky" of the container. They draw a sketch of what they see and record their observations on the Its a Small World mini booklet. Sudents investigate evaporation...

Students explore the water cycle. In this earth science lesson plan, they read the book Water Dance by Thomas Locker and use an interactive whiteboard to review the water cycle with an interactive website.

Second graders work in small groups with on cup each of warm and ice water. They observe the outsides of the cups. They exhale onto a small piece of mylar or mirrors and discuss the change in appearance. Students discuss where the foggy...

Third graders observe that water travels in a cycle. They study the parts of the water cycle: evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. They demonstrate the cyclical movement of water either by drawing the water cycle at the board,...

Students explore how temperature affects the processes of evaporation and condensation.

Third graders explore the concept of evaporation as they observe how the water level changes in a cup that is left out. Working in groups they observe physical changes in a group of everyday items. They record the changes in shape, size,...

Students explore the water cycle. In this investigative lesson plan, students examine the water cycle process. They will record their observations and discuss marine and freshwater ecosystems.

In this spelling list worksheet, students practice spelling words that are sight words, prefix dis-, and vocabulary. Students practice spelling 21 words total.

In this matter and energy worksheet, students will complete 10 questions about the transfer of energy through a food chain, the steps of the water cycle, and how the nitrogen cycle works.

Third graders sing a piggyback song to explore the parts of the water cycle and then illustrate and label the water cycle in their science journals.

Young scholars view a video of the water cycle, and make a water cycle baggie. In this water cycle lesson plan, students watch a video, discuss vocabulary, and make a water cycle baggie out of water, salt, ice, and a hot plate.
