An in-depth explanation of the Earth's water cycle, including a hyperlinked diagram that provides direct access to information about each phase in the cycle.

In this lesson students will create and investigate a simple model of the water cycle. Student sheets are provided in English and in Spanish.

In this lesson students are required to observe a simple model of the water cycle constructed of sand and ice in a plastic shoe box.

In this activity, you will investigate some of the processes that make water move in and out of the atmosphere by making a miniature water cycle model inside a plastic bag.

For students that have already been introduced to the water cycle, this lesson is intended as a logical follow-up. Students will learn about human impacts on the water cycle that create a pathway for pollutants beginning with urban...

Students will review the water cycle through a relay race vocabulary game.

Demonstration helps students understand the water cycle.

Activity helps with understanding the water cycle.

Learn about the movement of water from Earth's surface to the atmosphere with this site. Site describes the water cycle in words and with a diagram. Also explored on the page is the distribution of Earth's global water supply.

Water moves from place to place through the water cycle, which is changing as climate changes. Learn how the water cycle is changing as global temperatures rise.

Water can be in the atmosphere, on the land, in the ocean, and underground. It moves from place to place through the water cycle.

In this lesson, students draw and write about the water cycle, then discuss the important role the oceans play. Includes links to online resources.

Explore the water cycle by way of the clouds.

An article about the water cycle and the role that water plays in cloud formation.

During this lesson, students will learn that water is constantly being recycled through the atmosphere and how this affects us. Students will explore the water cycle on the Internet. Students create different types of weather situations...

An illustrated article helps learners understand the water cycle and the distribution of Earth's water.

The steps in the water cycle and the processes that occur are explained in this resource.

A collection of ideas for creating a science fair project on the water cycle.

Learn about the different sources of fresh water.

In this lesson plan, students will trace the flow of water in the environment, investigate simulated effects of global temperature change on oceanic levels, evaluate changes within the water cycle, and explain several different...

An illustrated diagram of the water cycle that students can use for study.

Through pictures, diagrams, and charts, learn how the ocean serves as a storehouse of water.

Despite seventy percent of the world's surface being covered with water, there is a potential shortage of this natural resource. Only a small percentage is fresh water and much of that is inaccessible or threatened. Learn about fresh...

In a class demonstration, students observe a simple water cycle model to better understand its role in pollutant transport. This activity shows one way in which pollution is affected by the water cycle; it simulates a point source of...
