Water's Amazing Journey Around Earth
WALT: We Are Learning To understand how the water cycle affects our environment A fun adventure through the water cycle for Year 1 students
Where Does Rain Come From?
Think about the last time it rained Where do you think the water comes from? What happens to puddles when the sun comes out?
Meet the Sun - Our Water Cycle Hero!
The sun is very hot and powerful It heats up water in rivers, lakes and oceans This makes the water rise up into the sky This is called EVAPORATION
Let's Act Out Evaporation!
Stand up and pretend to be water Start low on the ground like water in a lake Feel the warm sun heating you up Slowly rise up with your arms like water vapor!
Clouds Form in the Sky
Water vapor rises high up where it's cold The cold air makes water droplets stick together Millions of tiny droplets make fluffy clouds This is called CONDENSATION
The Water Cycle Journey
Rain Falls Down - Precipitation!
When clouds get heavy with water droplets The droplets fall down as rain Rain gives water to plants, animals and people Water flows into rivers and back to the ocean
Create Your Water Cycle Poster!
Work in groups of 5 students Draw the sun, clouds, rain and rivers Use the picture cards to help you Show how water helps plants and animals Use lots of colors and be creative!
