2. We all know that precipitation comes from clouds and goes into our Earth, but have you ever wondered how clouds were formed? In this section, you will get to learn each part of the water cycle and how it works! Good Luck!

3. 5 total sections 3 question quiz after each section Each question is multiple choice Correct answers will move onto the next question Incorrect answers will have to go back and redo the question Good Luck

4. Collection Precipitation Condensation Evaporation Steps of the Water Cycle Credits

5. In this section, you will learn about how precipitation impacts our environments! Good Luck!

6. Precipitation happens when so much water has condensed that the air is unable to hold any more. The clouds will begin to get heavy, and water will come to Earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet, or snow.

7. Click on the form of precipitation to learn more about it. Click the quiz button when you’re ready to be quizzed over precipitation. QuizRainSnow SleetHail

8. Rain can be found in any temperature as long as it is 32°F or higher. Rain can come during any season around the year. Next time it rains, look at the temperature and see how warm it is!

9. Hail can come during any season. You will mainly see hail when there is a large thunderstorm coming/going through an area. Next time your area gets impacted with a big storm, look to see if it hails!

10. Sleet will come when it is between 32°F and 50°F. Sleet is snow that is melting as it falls to the Earth. Next time you see sleet, compare the temperature. Yesterday’s vs. Today’s and Tomorrow’s.

11. Snow is found when the temperature is 32°F or lower. It is mainly found during the winter months of the year.

12. Good Luck!

23. In this section, you will learn about how precipitation impacts our environments! Good Luck!

24. Evaporation occurs when the water in rivers, lakes, or oceans is heated by the sun, which turns into a vapor or a steam. The vapor is a gas that is in the air.

25. Click on the form of evaporation to learn more about it. Click the quiz button when you’re ready to be quizzed over evaporation. Quiz

26. To help evaporation, plants transpire. Transpiration is when plants loose water out of their leaves which helps evaporation get the water back into the air. Next time you go outside in the early morning, look at the dew on the leaves!

27. To help evaporation, people perspire (sweat). Perspiration is when humans loose water out of their bodies which helps evaporation get water back into the air. Next time you go outside on a hot summer day, when you sweat think about how your body is perspiring!

28. Good Luck!

39. In this section, you will learn about how condensation and how it has an impact our environment! Good Luck!

40. Condensation is when water in the air gets cold and changes back into a liquid, forming a cloud.

41. Click on the condensation type to learn more about it. Click the quiz button when you’re ready to be quizzed over condensation. Quiz

42. When you have a cold drink on a hot day, water will form on the outside of the glass/bottle. That water came from the air! The air’s water vapor turned into a liquid when it touched the glass/bottle.

43. When your house or car is air conditioned on a hot day, water will form on the outside of the window. This water comes from the air! The air’s water vapor turned back into a liquid when it touched the window.

44. Good Luck!

45. when water in the air turns to water when water turns to vapor when vapor turns to ice when water turns to ice

55. In this section, you will learn about collection and how it has an impact our environment! Good Luck!

56. When water falls back to the Earth into the oceans, lakes, or rivers, it’s called collection. When it falls to land, it will soak into the Earth or become ground water for plants and animals to drink.

57. Click on the collection type to learn more about it. Click the quiz button when you’re ready to be quizzed over collection. Quiz

58. When water collects in lakes, rivers, or oceans, or gets soaked up by the land, it will help the plants near it get the proper amounts of water and nutrients that the plants need.

59. When water is collected in lakes, streams, rivers, or oceans, the animals around it will come to the area in order to get their bodies rehydrated.

71. In this section, you will learn about the order of the steps of the water cycle and their impact on our environment! Good Luck!

72. The water cycle is how the Earth’s water goes from clouds to rain to rivers, back to clouds, and over again.

74. When water goes from a vapor state as a cloud to a water state as precipitation, it’s called condensation. This occurs when the temperature in the air starts to cool down. When the cloud gets heavy, it will begin to “leak” to Earth in the form of precipitation.

75. When water falls to Earth, it is called precipitation. Precipitation comes in 4 different forms. Snow, rain, sleet, and hail. This occurs when a cloud becomes so full that it has to “leak” to have more room.

76. After water reaches Earth in a form of precipitation, it will either gather in an ocean, river, lake, or stream, or it will soak into the land. This is called collection. Collection occurs the moment the water touches the Earth. The water is used for animals, plants, and humans.

77. When water turns into vapor as it goes from lake, river, or ocean to a cloud, it’s called evaporation. Evaporation happens when the water is heated by the sun and turns into a vapor in the air.
