Water Cycle Lesson Plan - 1 views

  •  
    This is a lesson plan that helps teach the water cycle. It has the students acting as water droplets and moving through different stations in the room to represent them moving through the different stages in the water cycle. I like that in this lesson it gets the students out of their seats.

Water cycle game - 1 views

  •  
    This game is a great way to reinforce the water cycle concepts. It is colorful and bright to engage the children. what I like most is that it reads aloud everything to the player so that children with trouble reading can still fully appreciate the game.

Disappearing Puddle activity - 2 views

    This is a great way to bring something visual to a concept that is mostly invisible: evaporation. It gets the students outside and moving a little.

    This is a great activity to make the concept of the water cycle hands-on. Students can watch the process right before their eyes over the matter of an afternoon.

Bill Nye-Water cycle video - 0 views

  •  
    No matter how old you get everyone is always excited when you get to watch a Bill Nye video in class. This video concentrates on condensation. It provides an engaging introduction to the topic and also shows students that you can do the seemingly impossible (making a cloud in a jar) with science!
