Water Cycle extras


The Hydrologic Cycle is (also called the Water Cycle) is the continuous movement of water in the air, on the surface of and below the Earth.  I hope you will find these things helpful in learning more about the water cycle.  I worked really hard on looking this items up and finding things that I thought would make learning more fun.  Please take time to explore these things below.

Here are some directions to make a water cycle bracelet using beads:

Yellow bead:  represents the Sun - It powers the water cycle.
Clear bead: represents evaporation
White bead:  represents condensation
Blue bead:  represents precipitation
Green bead:  represents collection - The water will eventually run into the oceans, rivers, and streams again.

The picture of the bracelet shows two beads for each color.
