Water Cycle

As part of the Earth’s Systems unit, students will explore how water moves through Earth’s systems in the water cycle. Furthermore, they will examine how processes such as evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and runoff transfer water among the atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, and biosphere, and how these movements influence and shape Earth.
