How The Water Cycle Works.
When it rains, snows or hails it has a complicated cycle to make it rain or snow. It is called the water cycle, It contains three different elements to make it rain. The three elements are evaporation, condensation and precipitation.
Evaporation
Evaporation starts with the sun, when water is visible to water it slowly burns the water into water vapor, water vapor is a gas that is basically just water. When you cook something there is steam that rises up, thats water vapor.
Condensation
Condensation comes and takes the water up to the clouds. It takes the vapour to the clouds and cools it down. It stores the now cooled water until precipitation comes. As the water is cooling it can turn into hail and snow as it is cooling because the air near the clouds in below 0℃ .
Precipitation
Precipitation takes over condensation and is slowly turning the water into rain, snow, sleet or hail. The water then gets bigger until it turns into a reasonable size to fall down and hit the ground. The oceans, lakes and rivers all collect the water so then the water cycle repeats.
That is how the water cycle is formed. The cycle is much more complicated with many more theories on how it is actually formed but this is what scientists have come up with. There are many more possibilities that that is only a tiny part of the cycle but we might never know the real reason on the water cycle.
- Something that I did well: Finishing it on time
- Something I can improve for next time: Writing Scientifically
- Something that I need more help with: Putting the scientific words in the right places
Hi Trisha, I enjoyed reading your final writing project. I can see some of the edits that you made from your first draft and I think the changes brought up the quality in your work. Writing with scientific words and phrases can be tricky, so I think that is a very sensible goal for what your next steps are when we do this type of writing again.
