Students study the meaning of a water table and how it contributes to the existence of streams, swamps, and lakes in Nebraska. They conduct an experiment and complete a diagram of the hydrologic cycle.

Young scholars explore potential issues of a water shortage.  In this water conservation instructional activity, students brainstorm the many uses of water and what life would be like if there was not enough water available.

This resource presents a simple set of instructions for building a model of the water cycle in a lidded jar.
