2. The Water Cycle The stages in detail What are the stages?! What are the stages?! 1

3. The 4 Stages Evaporation: Water absorbs energy from the sun and heats up. It turns into gas and rises. Condensation: The gas form begins to cool and form clouds. Precipitation: The temperature warms up, and the clouds’ water molecules get too heavy. The water droplets fall. This can be rain, snow, or sleet. Accumulation: The fallen droplets “accumulate” into a larger body of water. It will always have the goal to getting in the ocean. I wonder if there is an easier way to remember these… I wonder if there is an easier way to remember these… 5

4. SONG: Evaporation, condensation, precipitation on my head. Accumulation in the ocean. The water cycle starts again! Tune: (Oh My Darling) Clementine Accumulation Let’s test our knowledge ! Let’s test our knowledge ! 4

5. A: Accumulation What is the first stage of the Water Cycle? A: Accumulation B: Evaporation C: Condensation

6. Precipitation is… A: Rain B: Rain & Snow C: Snow & Sleet D: Rain, Snow & Sleet D: Rain, Snow & Sleet

7. Finish the lyrics: “Accumulation in…” A: The Sewers C: The Ocean B: A Puddle D: The Soil

8. What stage do these form? A: Evaporation B: Condensation C: Precipitation D: Accumulation

9. Nice work CORRECT!! NEXT QUESTION

10. Try to think of our song… What comes first? NOPE… Go Back & Try Again

11. Try to think of all types of water forms that fall out of the sky… Not Quite. Go Back & Try Again

12. Rain, snow and sleet are all different precipitation we see falling from the clouds above us. Exactly! NEXT QUESTION

13. “Accumulation in the ocean. The water cycle starts again!!” YES! NEXT QUESTION

14. While water can accumulate here, what location is waters goal to reach?? Try Again… Go Back & Try Again

15. Think about what stage the water cools first. Sorry, That is Incorrect. Go Back & Try Again

16. Clouds form when the water cools and condenses! Awesome! That’s All Folks!

17. Next time we will learn body movements to go with the song!! Great Job Class! Credit s Credit s
