🔄 The Water Cycle
This quiz explores the water cycle—how water moves from Earth to the sky and back again. Students will learn about evaporation (water turning into invisible vapor), condensation (vapor forming clouds and droplets), and precipitation (rain and snow falling to the ground). Through real-world examples that Grade 2 students observe daily, you'll understand how water travels continuously between the Earth and atmosphere. **What you'll learn:** - How water evaporates from oceans, lakes, and puddles - How vapor condenses to form clouds and rain - The three main steps of the water cycle: evaporation, condensation, and precipitation - Real-life examples of water cycle processes you see every day
