Water Cycle

How is water made?

Water Cycle is a circulation of water made around the world. A water cycle is also a cycle of a step by step process of water being made.

Evaporation:

When evaporation commences, it changes the water from liquid into vapor or steam. Evaporation is also when the sun heats up the water in rivers, lake or oceans and turns it into vapor or steam. The water vapor or steam then leaves the ocean and goes into the air.

Condensation:

After evaporations occur, 'condensation' begins. Condensation is the process by which water vapor in the air is changed into liquid water. Condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it is responsible for the formation of clouds.

Precipitation:

Precipitation now begins. Precipitation occurs when so much water has condensed that the air cannot hold it anymore. Soon the clouds get heavy and water falls back to the earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet or snow.

Collection:

When water falls back to earth as precipitation, it may fall back in the oceans, lakes or rivers or it may end up on land. When it ends up on land, it will either soak into the earth and become part of the “groundwater” that plants and animals use to drink or it may run over the soil and collect in the oceans, lakes or rivers where the cycle starts all over again.

Conclusion:

When water vapor cools, it becomes liquid water. Precipitation is water that falls to Earth as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. The Water Cycle is the movement of water from Earth's surface into the air and back to Earth repeatedly.

Learning Intention: WALT write an explanation writing about the water cycle.
