The water cycle

Water cycle

Water never stops.  All of our water has been around since dinosaurs were around.  75% of the earth is fresh water.  97% is the ocean and 2.27% is ice caps and glaciers. 

Water starts at the sea.  It evaporates into the air and goes in a cloud, turns into a rain cloud and rains.  On the mountain, there is a lovely river that takes the rainwater and that water goes back out to the ocean it came from.  It goes in a circle.  You need trees to give you oxygen to keep us alive.  On top of the mountain is a run-off.  A run-off is a river that goes into the ocean.

Condensation is when water evaporates into the sky and joins together.  Once the water condenses, it gets too heavy and falls as rain.  This is another word for precipitation.  Sometimes water goes too high into colder air, which makes the water freeze and that falls as hail.  Snow forms when water vapour is lifted to areas where there are sub-freezing temperatures.

In conclusion, the water cycle is the most important things to humans, the Earth and every living thing.  It happens around evaporation and condensation.  IT is amazing how water goes around in a circle and how the water stays around since the dinosaurs were around.  All of these paragraphs are a real story.
