How to explain the water cycle to a 2nd grader

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-04-23] [Hit: ]
I have to make a comic of how the water cycle works so a 2nd grader understands. I have to use the words: evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. I find that immpossible, but anyway any help or ideas of what to base my storyline on is appreciated.......
It's spring break and I completely blew it off to the last days. I have to make a comic of how the water cycle works so a 2nd grader understands. I have to use the words: evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. I find that immpossible, but anyway any help or ideas of what to base my storyline on is appreciated. Thanks so much!

why not use the "hard" words as names of superheroes? :P their abilities can be their definition like evaporation has powers of making water into air/gas...
everyone will have a role in the society :P
makes a cute story hehe ^^,

Dont make it complicated, say it like this:

The heat from the Sun makes the water in the oceans, lakes, or rivers evaporate and go into the air.

When they are in the air they float way up into the sky where it is cold.

When it gets really cold the water clumps together again to form clouds. This is called condensation.

The clouds get bigger and heavier as more water clumps together. Eventually, the cloud gets too heavy and the water falls down to the earth. This is called precipitation. Precipitation is things like rain and snow.

You could do it from the perspective of a raindrop and its 'friends'.
They could start off in the sea, some of them get evaporated and condensed to form clouds.
Clouds then precipitate the rain over land, where the raindrop flows through rivers into the sea, being reunited with its friends.

Besides your vocabulary words, include pictures & words that amuse a 2nd grader. Don't forget to include examples that appeal to them as well. (:

Good luck!
