Water Cycle (science)

Climate Change - Water Cycle 

Today In science we talked about the Water Cycle and how it all combines into climate change. 

Task: We got given a sheet of yellow paper, and a sheet of white paper which had hexagons on it, inside those hexagons were scientific words that we had to connect to each but had a reason to be connected. Then we glued them onto the sheet of yellow paper. 

Result: 

Words on the paper:

• Climate Change is connected to Hurricanes/Carbon Dioxide/Water Cycle/Acid Rain.
• Water Cycle is connected to Acid Rain/Evaporation/Precipitation/Condensation/ Transpiration/Water Vapour. 
• Acid Rain is connected to Climate Change/Hurricanes/Carbon Dioxide/Water Cycle - Evaporation/transpiration/Water Vapour/Condensation/Precipitation.   
• Hurricanes is connected to Climate Change/Carbon Dioxide/Water Cycle - Evaporation/transpiration/Water Vapour/Condensation/Precipitation.   
• Carbon Dioxide  is connected to Climate Change/Water Cycle - Evaporation/transpiration/Water Vapour/Condensation/Precipitation.   
• Evaporation is connected to Water Cycle - Transpiration/Water Vapour/Condensation/Precipitation.   
• Condensation is connected to Water Cycle - Evaporation/transpiration/Water Vapour/Precipitation.   
• Precipitation is connected to Water Cycle - Evaporation/transpiration/Water Vapour/Condensation.   
• Transpiration is connected to Water Cycle - Evaporation/Water Vapour/Condensation/Precipitation.   
•  Water Vapour is connected to Water Cycle - Evaporation/transpiration/Condensation/Precipitation.   

Evaporation: When water is heated by radiant energy it turns into water vapour. 

Transpiration: Evaporation from plants.

Condensation: When water vapour cools, molecules join together and form clouds. 

Precipitation: When clouds get heavy the water falls as rain, sleet, hail or snow. 

Acidification: The action or process of making or becoming acid.
