Worksheet on The Water Cycle

1. The water cycle begins with water from puddles or oceans.

2. Then the water evaporates and forms water vapor.

3. Then the tiny drops of water form clouds.

4. When the droplets begin to bump together in the sky and get too heavy, they fall from the clouds as drops of rain.

5. Then the water cycle begins again.

When the droplets begin to bump

together in the sky and get too heavy,

They fall from the clouds as drops of rain.

Then tiny

drops of water

form clouds

Water evaporates and forms water vapor

The water cycle begins with water from puddles or oceans. COLOR THE PICTURETORNADO

Tornadoes or twisters are weather patterns that are created during stormy weather. Tornadoes are funnel shaped extensions from a cloud and brings strong winds and rain in its path. The winds can go up to 200 miles an hour.

HURRICANE

Hurricanes are dangerous. They are very large and strong. They form over water, such as in the Atlantic Ocean. It is at its strongest point when it is over water. It has an eye, an eye wall, rain, tornadoes, and strong winds. If the winds are 75 miles an hour or higher, it is called a hurricane. If the winds are 35 to 54 miles an hour, it is called a tropical depression and if the winds range from 55 to 74 miles an hour, it is called a tropical storm.

LIGHTING AND THUNDER

During a storm, electricity can be in the air. This electricity is called lightning. The loud crackling sound that follows the electricity in air is called thunder. This happens when the hot air from the electricity hits the cooler air.
