WATER CYCLE

• The water cycle is a circle of events.First it
  evaporates,then it condensates,then it
  precipitates then it collects.Evaporation is when
  the water rises and it evaporates.Condensate
  means when it forms a cloud.Precipitate means
  when it rains or snows.Collection is when it
  collects in a lake or ocean.

Cloud types

• The four cloud types are cirrus,stratus,cumulus
  and nimbus. Cirrus are made of ice crystals and
  it usually means fair weather. Stratus clouds
  means it will be foggy it might rain. Cumulus
  clouds mean fair weather and it can be storm
  clouds. Nimbus rains and the color is gray.

forcasing weather

• One instrument used for forecasting weather is a
  barometer which shows the amount of air pressure
  in the area,an anemometer shows wind
  speed,thermometers show the temperature, a wind
  sock shows which direction the wind is going, and
  a rain gauge shows the amount of precipitation.

Recording info

• Pop means possibility of precipitation.

• We have seasons because the earth is on a tilt.

EVAPORATION EXPERIMENT
We had four containers and filled them with the
same amount of water and we waited to see which
one evaporated the fastest.
10
THE BOTTLE EXPERIMENT
We put a bit of water in a bottle lit a match and
blew it out. Then we put the match in the bottle
and it created smoke. Then we squeezed the bottle
and it created pressure. Then we let go and a
cloud formed.

FORECASTING CITIES

• Each student was given a city to find the
  weather.Every day we would go on the computer and
  look at the weather of the city that we got.

THE END
We learned about the weather for two months.And
we were given an assignment to make a power
point presentation. So we put all the information
we knew on it.We learned a lot in those two
months.I hope you learned a lot from this too.
Where we got our information.
