The Water Cycle
LAND
AIR

1. The suns heat makes water evaporate or change
into a gas.
6. The rain and melted snow flow into
streams, lakes, and oceans.
How the Water Cycle Works
5. The water drops become very heavy and fall as
rain or snow.
2. This gas, or water vapor meets cool air.
4. The drops of water come together and form
clouds.
3. The water vapor changes into tiny drops of
water.
