The Water Cycle

Water on earth moves in a continuous cycle. This is called THE WATER CYCLE. There is about the same amount of water on earth now that there was when the dinosaurs roamed our planet.

How is this possible?

Water travels to many places in many different ways. Where does it go and how does it get there?

To find the answers to these questions you will be carrying out a number of activities that will help you understand the water cycle on earth. Then you will think about and do some on-line activities to find how the water cycle is related to Washington's rain forest.
