The water cycle
Everyone needs
water
We
have had water since God first made the earth.
We have got 97% of ocean water.
There is 75% of fresh water in your body. Glaciers and ice caps only have 2.25%.
The
sun is so hot; it lifts up the ocean water.
This is called evaporation. Then
it goes round and round – this is called condensation. Then it runs down the river on the mountain,
which we say is precipitation.
You
can only have 3% of water in the whole wide world. You have to share it with every person. Without water, you will die. There will be no laughing and no sound. Without trees and leaves, you will die. You will die without water because trees and
leaves give you air to breathe – you need fresh air.
Evaporation
When
you put some hot water outside, the sun shines and lifts up the hot water. It rises up into the air. It is really hard to see – it is like mist or
steam just rising right into the clouds.
When the bubbles rise, they are called water vapour.
Condensation
This
is when the water vapour joins together.
The temperature is just like frozen air blowing on your nice, warm
face. When water evaporates into the
sky, it forms clouds. Clouds are filled
with fresh water because the water rises in to the air and comes back down like
rain, which is called precipitation. The
only reason why it falls down is because of gravity.
In
conclusion, the water cycle is needed because we want everyone to survive in
this world. We need the water cycle to
go on and on and on. This happens
everywhere around the world. It comes
from evaporation then condensation and coming down with precipitation. It is awesome how we are drinking water from
the beginning of the earth.
