The Water Cycle - Evaporation, Condensation and Precipitation
The sun evaporates water from lakes and oceans. As the air rises, it becomes cooler. The water vapor
condenses into tiny droplets of water .The droplets crowd together and form a cloud. The wind blows the cloud
towards the land. The tiny droplets join together and fall as precipitation to the ground. The water soaks into
the ground and collects in rivers and lakes. The cycle that never ends starts again!
The diagram to identify
the different parts of the water cycle:
1 = The Sun
2 = Clouds
3 = Evaporation
4 = Precipitation
5 = The Ocean
