What Goes Around Comes Around
Young scholars investigate how the ocean plays a part in the water cycle. In this earth science lesson plan, students locate a puddle outside and mark it with chalk. Young scholars observe the changes in the water during the next two days.
Curated OER
Water Cycle Relay
Students review the steps in the water cycle by playing a game to fill in the missing words in the cycle. Students read a water cycle riddle and decide which word best fits the riddle.
