A. The Water We Drink (Make sure you have this
copied).

• 1. Earths ocean covers more than 140 million
  square miles.
• 2. The Earths oceans contain about 97 of all
  the water on Earth.
• 3. 99 of the total water supply is unsafe to
  drink.
• 4. Earths water cycle continuously replaces the
  supply of fresh water.
• 5. Most of the water humans use every day, about
  80 of it, comes from surface water in freshwater
  rivers and lakes.

• Write you final copy on the graphic organizer.
• Streams page 26
• Rivers page 26-27
• Lakes page 27-28
• Earths Ocean page 29-30

17
Streams

• Streams are bodies of water that flow over land
• Streams start in the high grounds such as hills
  and mountains.
• Streams are often formed by melted snowfields and
  glaciers, or overflowing lakes.
• Streams empty into larger water bodies through
  parts called mouths.

18
Rivers

• Rivers are mostly formed by wide streams or many
  streams joining together called tributaries.
• Rivers are found on every continent of Earth
  except Antarctica.
• The largest river is the Nile in Africa. It is
  4,160 miles long.
• The Amazon is the largest river system.
• Rivers carry away water from land.
• Many of the worlds first settlements and
  civilizations developed along rivers.
• Rivers are a valuable source of energy.
• Rivers are important for trade and transportation.

19
Lakes

• The word lake means hole
• Lakes are created when water fills a hole or
  opening in Earths surface.
• Lakes exist on every continent except Antarctica.
• The greatest number of lakes are found in North
  America and northern Europe.
• Lake Baikal is the largest lake in the world
• North America has the most lakes in the world.
  The Great Lakes are the largest.
• Lakes can be made by humans who build dams to
  control rivers. They are called reservoirs.

20
Ocean

• Oceans cover much of the planet. (75)
• The largest is the Pacific, then the Atlantic,
  Indian and Arctic.
• The Pacific is also the deepest.
• Oceans have mountain ranges, plains, basins, and
  valleys.
• Iceland is formed from a mountain in the
  Atlantic.
• Ocean currents are caused by winds. They move
  clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and
  counterclockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
• Ocean currents carry hot and warm water.
• The pull of the sun and the moon cause tides.
• Smaller bodies of water connected to oceans are
  called gulfs, bays, and seas.
