WATER CYCLE MATERIALS EXPLORING THE WATER CYCLE CAPTURE

WATER CYCLE MATERIALS: EXPLORING THE WATER CYCLE CAPTURE SHEET WATER CYCLE HOMEWORK SHEET

LESSON OBJECTIVE • I CAN OBSERVE/INVESTIGATE THE MOVEMENT OF WATER THROUGH THE DIFFERENT STAGES OF THE WATER CYCLE • I CAN DETERMINE WHAT DRIVES THE WATER CYCLE.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION • WHAT IS THE WATER CYCLE?

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLEEVAPORATION • WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN HEAT IS ADDED TO THIS BEAKER OF WATER?

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLEEVAPORATION • WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN HEAT IS ADDED TO THIS BEAKER OF WATER? - IT WILL CAUSE THE WATER TO GET HOT AND THEN EVAPORATE (CHANGE FROM A LIQUID STATE TO A GAS STATE)

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLEEVAPORATION • WHAT HAPPENS TO THE WATER AS IT RECEIVES HEAT ENERGY FROM THE SUN (REPRESENTED BY THE BURNER)?

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLEEVAPORATION • WHAT HAPPENS TO THE WATER AS IT RECEIVES HEAT ENERGY FROM THE SUN (REPRESENTED BY THE BURNER)? THE WATER WILL WARM UP

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLEEVAPORATION • WHAT PHASE IS OCCURRING IN THE WATER?

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLEEVAPORATION • WHAT PHASE IS OCCURRING IN THE WATER? IT IS EVAPORATION, WHEN WATER CHANGES FROM A LIQUID TO A WATER VAPOR

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLECONDENSATION • WHERE DID THE WATER ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAN COME FROM?

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLECONDENSATION • WHERE DID THE WATER ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAN COME FROM? THE CAN WAS COOLER THAN THE AIR AROUND IT. THE WATER VAPOR THAT WAS IN THE AIR COOLED AND TURNED INTO A LIQUID (CONDENSED).

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLE • WHAT MADE THE MIRROR FOG UP?

DEMONSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLE • WHAT MADE THE MIRROR FOG UP? THE MIRROR WAS COOLER THAN YOUR BREATH. THE WATER VAPOR THAT WAS IN YOUR BREATH COOLED AND TURNED INTO A LIQUID (CONDENSED) WHEN IT TOUCHED THE MIRROR.
