In this water cycle worksheet, students will write in a description for the 3 stages of the water cycle: evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.

Fifth graders study the weather and water cycle of clouds. In this water cycle lesson, 5th graders read background information about evaporation, condensation, and the states of water.

Do solids, liquids, and gases even matter? The presentation focuses on changes in matter, including phases, Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, and physical changes. 

Students study the water cycle including condensation, evaporation, and precipitation. In this water cycle lesson, students watch a video and access assigned web sites to investigate the water cycle. They complete an experiment with a...

In this water cycle worksheet, students draw a picture and write a short story. In this fill in the blank and essay worksheet, students complete two activities.

Young scholars study the water cycle and how the sun is an important factor.  In this water cycle lesson students investigate how to desalinate water and explore the different densities of fresh versus saltwater.

Sixth graders use the scientific method to test variables of evaporation. In this evaporation lesson plan, 6th graders test a wet handprint on a paper towel and relate this experiment to weather conditions.

Students plan, practice, and act in a 2-3 minute videotaped production about a specific topic. Students from a local high school give presentations pertaining to seasons, earth rotation, and moon phases. Students analyze the...

Students perform experiments in pairs to visualize the changes in water during freezing and melting. In this properties of water lesson, students use their senses and inquiry tools to understand the changes in state of water. Suggested...

Students experiment with a solar still. In this distillation activity, students find a simple way to use evaporation to make salty water drinkable.

A sequence of slides that show the apparatus set up for varying practices of distillation. The equipment pieces in each diagram are labeled and their purpose noted. Your class can use these pictures to help set up their own equipment, or...

Students explain how to desalinate water using solar energy.  In this solar lesson students complete a lab activity and explain capillary water. 

For this states of matter worksheet, students fill in the blanks using the terms evaporation or condensation for 4 statements. They match vaporization, condensation, evaporation and boiling to their definitions. They fill in 8 blanks...

Fourth graders explore evaporation and condensation. In this water cycle lesson, 4th graders investigate their surroundings for real-life examples of evaporation and condensation. Students conduct various experiments.

Students are introduced to the processes of evaporation and condensation as they observe physical changes in water. They observe how matter changes from a solid to a liquid state. Students are explained that steam is water in its gaseous...

Students investigate the water cycle. In this water cycle science lesson plan, students participate in a series of activities that demonstrate evaporation, precipitation, and condensation.  Students describe their observations using...

Students build a model and observe the cycle of evaporation and condensation that occurs in the water cycle. They see how the water cycle works, such as water condensing on the side of the jar and drops precipitating into rain that...

Students show their knowledge by choosing the correct answer about solids, liquids and gases. Students also write short answer responses to questions about experiments they have done.

Students investigate the 3 states of matter. For this physical science "matter" lesson, students observe and participate in a number of demonstrations involving melting and freezing water. Students observe the effect heat has on changing...

First graders examine the water cycle through readings and experiments. In groups, they conduct interviews with others and use the information to create a chart displaying the various uses of water. After brainstorming lists of ways to...

In this water cycle worksheet, students create a mini version of the water cycle in a plastic bag by observing the bag for 5 days. Each day students draw a picture of how their bag looks and write an explanation of what they see. Next,...

Students conduct an experiment on the stages of the Water Cycle.  In this water cycle lesson, students view the materials needed for the experiment and brainstorm how they relate to the Water Cycle.  Students conduct an...

Second graders conduct an a water cycle experiment. For this water cycle lesson, 2nd graders observe a puddle of water, they predict how it got there and what will happen to it.  Students watch a demonstration on the water cycle and...

In this thermochemistry instructional activity, learners indicate whether the given processes are endothermic or exothermic reactions. Students complete the phase change diagram as well as define a given set of vocabulary words. Learners...
