Water Cycle Active Art

The water cycle is a cycle in which the water moves. The water cycle consists of three steps: Evaporation, Condensation, and Precipitation. Evaporation is when the water is brought up to the sky from water or plants. Condensation is when the moisture from earth forms clouds that carry precipitation. Precipitation is any type of moisture that falls from the sky. Such as, rain, hail and snow. The water cycle begins with Evaporation, then Condensation, then to Precipitation. Imagine a sunny day after a big rain storm, there is a puddle. The moisture in the puddle will evaporate because of the suns radiation then this small puddle of moisture will condense into clouds. The moisture from the clouds will then fall as precipitation as long as its heavy enough. If its not, then it will go back into the clouds. Soon it will be heavy enough to fall as precipitation.
