Water water everywhere. Check out this video clip and test understanding about the cycle of water from the earth to the atmosphere.

Discover the processes of the water cycle and learn about its effect on weather and climate.

This simple overview provides definitions of key terms in the water cycle and a diagram showing the path water takes in this cycle.

Simple diagram and explanations of the water cycle and related terms.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This is a science flipchart that reviews the stages of the water cycle and also ways in which the water cycle affects weather such as hurricanes and tornadoes.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Using this flipchart students study the phases of the water cycle and its importance to the earth. Assessment questions use Activotes.

Learn about the water cycle from this "book" that includes bright pictures and descriptions. Learn about precipitation, condensation, and evaporation and see examples of each phenomenon.

Students build a model of a water molecule and design an experiment to see if adding energy affects the rate of evaporation.

Students carry out a number of activities that demonstrate the concepts of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and soil moisture and runoff. Then students construct a terrarium as a way to observe the water cycle. Immediately...

The paths that water can take through Earth's systems are many and complex. Examine the following diagram from NASA depicting the water cycle. Studying the water cycle is important because changes in the water cycle affect all parts of...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of evaporation, how it occurs, what affects its rate and evaporative cooling.

Students learn about the techniques engineers have developed for changing ocean water into drinking water, including thermal and membrane desalination. They begin by reviewing the components of the natural water cycle. They see how...

Students will observe water evaporation in this performance task, and investigate the water cycle. The task is designed for Grade Two.

The engineers at Splash Engineering (the students) have been commissioned by Thirsty County to conduct a study of evaporation and transpiration in their region. During one week, students observe and measure (by weight) the ongoing...

Students will listen to a story about the water cycle, observe how water droplets form on a glass of icy water, then draw and label a picture showing condensation.

An illustrated diagram of the water cycle that students can use for study.

In this activity, students will learn about the water cycle through a story, a song, and a game, and relate it to the weather that they observe.

Describes the four main stages of the water cycle - evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.

Provides a simple explanation of the water cycle by describing four main stages - evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection. Includes three project ideas and some interesting facts.

Ready for the carnival? First, help Joao get ready for his test about the water cycle, and then explore other water cycle processes.

When we get hot, we sweat. The physiological role of sweat is to cool us down. When the water evaporates, it removes energy from our bodies. This sort of evaporative cooling can also be used to cool homes, using what are referred to as...

How do you show students that the water cycle is more than just the traditional model of the ocean, clouds, and mountains and actually a part of their daily lives? This video will show multiple models of different part of the water cycle...

In a class demonstration, students observe a simple water cycle model to better understand its role in pollutant transport. This activity shows one way in which pollution is affected by the water cycle; it simulates a point source of...

Learn about the four phases of the water cycle, the ways in which watersheds are crucial to healthy water, and the best ways to manage local watersheds with this interactive lesson.
