Introduction
Imagine you are a drop of water. One moment you are in the ocean, the next you are floating in the clouds! In this WebQuest, you will explore the journey of a water droplet through the water cycle and understand the processes involved.
Task
You will create a digital story or comic strip showing the journey of a water droplet through the water cycle. Your end product should clearly show the stages: evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.
Process
1. Watch the video: "The Water Cycle for Kids" (YouTube link)
2. Read the article: “How the Water Cycle Works” (link from National Geographic Kids)
3. Explore the interactive game: Water Cycle Adventure (link to interactive site)
4. Take notes on each stage of the water cycle.
5. Use Canva, Pixton, or Google Slides to create your digital story or comic.
6. Share your final output with the class via our learning platform or email.
